Roman law says generals can cross the river if they leave their soldiers behind

Option D

Explanation:

The correct option is d: generals can cross the river is they leave their soldiers behind. According to Roman law, generals could not cross the Rubicon River with a standing army and had to leave the soldiers behind before crossing it.

The Rubicon was a minor waterway in Italy and marked the northern most boundary of Rome. Roman law prohibited the generals to cross the river at the head of the army and if a general did so, it was considered to be treason. Julius Ceaser however crossed the Rubicon with his army in 49BC.
