Caesar also recounts expeditions beyond Gaul, including his brief invasions of Britain and his conflicts with Germanic tribes across the Rhine. The work functions not only as military history but also as political propaganda, portraying Caesar as a decisive, just, and strategically brilliant commander while legitimizing his expanding power in Rome.
