Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus (official classification Cn·pompeivs·cn·f·sex·n·magnvs;[1] 29 September 106 BC – 29 September 48 BC), normally referred to in English as Pompey/ˈpɒmpiː/ or Pompey the Great,[2] was a military and political pioneer of the late Roman Republic. He originated from a rich Italian common foundation, and his father had been the first to secure the family among the Roman honorability. Pompey's enormous accomplishment as a general while still extremely adolescent empowered him to development straightforwardly to his first consulship without gathering the ordinary necessities for office. Military achievement in Sulla's Second Civil War headed him to receive the epithet Magnus, "the Great". He was diplomat three times and commended three triumphs.

In the mid-60 BC, Pompey joined Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gaius Julius Caesar in the informal military-political union known as the First Triumvirate, which Pompey's marriage to Caesar's girl Julia helped secure. After the passings of Julia and Crassus, Pompey agreed with the optimates, the moderate faction of the Roman Senate. Pompey and Caesar then fought for the initiative of the Roman state, prompting a common war. At the point when Pompey was crushed at the Battle of Pharsalus, he looked for asylum in Egypt, where he was killed. His vocation and thrashing are critical in Rome's resulting conversion from Republic to Principate and Empire.
