Brennus (leader of the Gauls)

Brennus was a prominent leader of the Gauls, a group of Celtic tribes in ancient Europe, during the 4th century BCE. He is best known for leading the Gallic tribes that sacked Rome around 390 BCE, demonstrating their military strength. Brennus symbolized both the fierce independence and strategic resilience of the Gauls. His leadership played a significant role in shaping early European history, as his actions challenged the dominance of other Mediterranean powers and highlighted the threat posed by the Celtic tribes to expanding civilizations.
