Veni, vidi, vici is a Latin phrase used by the Roman general and consul Julius Caesar in 47 BC. C., when addressing the Roman Senate, describing his recent victory over Pharnaces II of Pontus in the Battle of Zela. The formula, attributed to Julius Caesar - according to Suetonius, he wrote it after the battle of Zela, in which he defeated the king of Pontus—and which is translated as I came, I saw, and I conquered. It is commonly used to signify the speed with which something has been done successfully, at the same time it proclaimed the totality of Caesar's victory and served to remind the Senate of his military prowess (Caesar was immersed in a civil war against Pompey). Alternatively, the comment can be seen as an expression of Caesar's disdain for the patrician Senate (optimates), which traditionally represented the most powerful group in the Roman republic. Veni, vidi and vici are the first person simple past perfect verbs in Latin vinore, videre and vincere
