      Video idea: How mental health issues were seen and handled in Roman societies. I know you have the PTSD video, but, what I'm interested in is how Romans may have treated citizens who could reasonably be seen to have a condition such as schizophrenia, autism, etc.

    I'm not sure "foreigner" is a proper translation of Peregrina in this context, "guest" would be better. As far as I know Castra Peregrina was essentially guest barracks for soldiers in Rome for temporary assignments. The Frumentarii had their HQ there, but all kinds of other units were present too. You have a messenger waiting to go out with a delivery, you stick him there until the parcel is ready. Someone's coming back from vacation, waiting for a transport to Africa, you room him there. They're not strangers, they're soldiers passing through town.

      Would make sense I mean you wouldn’t want people to actually know where your spies go in and out of. Labeling a frumentari legionary as being sent to a “temporary duty station” as a “guest” provides a lot of cover for covert operations when it comes to documentation.

      Intelligence is only as good as the person who recieves. Stalin recieved all sorts of intelligence about operation Barbarossa before it was even assembled. The NKVD and GRU were easily the most effective intelligence service of WW2. Thing was Stalin was convinced Hitler would never do something so foolish as to start a war with the British Empire and USSR at the same time. He also hated being proven wrong and would kill anyone who gave him contradictory information this included the Director of the GRU who told the truth. As such it didn’t matter Soviet intelligence knew exactly when the Nazis would attack, where it would come from, and how it would happen. Joseph Stalin was Joseph Stalin and no one was going to tell him he was wrong. And so operational Barbarossa took the Russian army completely by surprise and caught the entire red army with their pants down resulting in over twenty million deaths over the course of the war.
      The same thing happened to Varus. He wanted a successful campaign so bad he refused to believe that he was leading his troops into a trap or to even inform his subordinate officers that an ambush was very possible. Contrast that with Julius Caesar in Gaul the Gauls fought the same way, however Caesar anticipated every ambush they set because he listened to his intelligence personnel. The Nervi almost had him. But he had tenth legion already armed and ready further towards the rear so they didn’t get caught in the ambush. Mad lad then chucked himself into the troops who were getting ambushed to hold up morale while the boys in the tenth advanced to enemy rear. He knew the Nervi would ambush him he didn’t know when or where but he took moves to prepare for it when it did happen. If the Commander’s smart so is the army if he’s stupid so is the army.

    Intelligence and Reconnaissance are distinct. The romans sent grain merchants ahead of the army. They met all the big landholders, knew where they lived and to whom they sold how much of their harvest, all without prying. Disaffected sons of nobility (+network) were attracted as a both local expert and 'client king-in-waiting' (Caesar's 'De bello Gallico')

To me the transition from that to law enforcement, state agent, or even a political tool seems quite natural.

Like the roman emperor using satellites to make plans then going on tv to warn the neighboring civilization to surrender or they will get hit with 1000s of foot soldiers and 100s of missiles because rome will build a empire that will go around the earth. I ask because I feel like the instant communication era would make those empire expansions more interesting.

    Could the term "frumentarii" have been a slang one perhaps referring to a common cover used by these agents? Such things aren't unknown even in modern times. For example, between the First and Second World Wars it was standard practice for MI6 agents to be placed in British embassies as Passport Control Officers. Might not a similar use of an innocuous title have been used for the Roman equivalent of secret agents? Maybe to the extent it became a sort of in joke. "He's one of the frumentarii," an officer might whisper to a freind with by an exaggerated wink, indicating someone else's true, or suspected, real job.

      No... Sicilian Vespers were around in the late Middle Ages, after the fall of Rome. You could argue that the cunning of the Sicilian people did help Rome, but it was not necessarily the Vespers. Sicilians are ancient people that go back further than Rome itself. They knew the Mediterranean as well as pre-Grecian Empire Greeks, as they were essentially the same people. They worshipped the land because they knew it so well. They knew the worst of it and the best of it.
