Gnaeus Pompey did not originally wish to join the First Triumvirate. What caused him to change his mind?
poizon [28]

Answer:

  • Land for his soldiers
  • Settlement of a Roman territory.

Explanation:

Pompey had prestige in Rome but he also faced a lot of opposition in the Senate from nobles when he tried to get them to give him land for his soldiers as well as to approve settlement of a Roman territory to the east.

When he saw that he would not manage on his own, he turned to Caesar who already had Crassus on his side. Together they formed the First Triumvirate and Caesar pushed through Pompey's request for land.
