Barbarians Rising: Boudica The Warrior Queen | Roman invasion of Britain

Baudicca was a queen of the British Celtic Iceni tribe who led an uprising against the conquering forces of the Roman Empire in AD 60 or 61.

The uprising caused Nero to consider withdrawing all Roman forces from Britain, but Suetonius's victory over Boudica confirmed Roman control of the province.

Boudica then either killed herself to avoid capture.
