SEC. 18.--DISTRIBUTION OF LAND AFTER THE CIVIL WAR BETWEEN CAESAR AND
POMPEY.

After Pompey had been vanquished at Pharsalia, and the republicans in
Africa, Caesar proceeded to distribute lands to his soldiers in accordance
with his promise to give them lands, "not by taking them from their
proprietors as Sulla did; not by mixing colonists with citizens despoiled
of their goods and thus breeding perpetual strife,--but by dividing
both public land and his own private property,[1] and, if this were not
sufficient, by buying what was needed.
