Caesar receives a report from Publius Crassus that all the maritime states along the Ocean have been brought under Roman subjection.
Eodem tempore a P. Crasso, quem cum legione una miserat ad Venetos, Venellos, Osismos, Coriosolitas, Esuvios, Aulercos, Redones, quae sunt maritimae civitates1 Oceanumque attingunt, certior factus est2 omnes eas civitates in dicionem potestatemque populi Romani esse redactas.
At the same time, he was informed by Publius Crassus, whom he had sent with one legion to the Veneti, Venelli, Osismi, Coriosolites, Esuvii, Aulerci, and Redones, which are maritime states and border on the Ocean, that all these states had been brought under the dominion and power of the Roman people.
- 2.34.1quae sunt maritimae civitates
The relative pronoun quae refers to the preceding list of tribes (Venetos, etc.), which are masculine plural, but its gender has been attracted to the feminine plural predicate noun within the relative clause, maritimae civitates (attraction of gender).
- 2.34.1certior factus est
The combination of the comparative adjective certior and facere (here in the passive perfect, factus est) means "to be informed" or "to receive word." The source of information is indicated by a P. Crasso (ablative of agent), and the content of the report is expressed by the accusative and infinitive clause omnes eas civitates... esse redactas.
