Explanation:
First Triumvirate was a political alliance between Marcus Licinius Crassus, Pompey, and Julius Caesar.

At first, Pompey did not want to participate in the First Triumvirate, because he did not support Crassus.
Pompey was a great general and Crassus was an extremely wealthy and influential man. Pompey wanted the Roman Senate to give land to veterans of his army. So they could colonize land in the name of Rome, in the eastern territories.
