Commentariis

The URL of my blog contains the term commentariis. The "s" is superfluous, and I would have liked to have it as commentarii, but I was too slow to get on the bandwagon and that name was already taken. So I made it a double and impure plural by adding an "s" at the end.

This term is inspired by the legendary commentarii of Julius Caesar from his Gaulish campaign. Considered a masterpiece of propaganda and statement of intent and style, it shows Caesar as an observant person and able commander who puts a consistent spin on things.
