Factual error: In Chapter 14, Cato is being awarded a grass crown for saving his centurion and the standard of his company. The grass crown was only given to generals or other higher officers, for rescuing an entire legion or army, and it had to be acclaimed by the entire legion he rescued. As an optio, Cato would be ineligible for a grass crown, his actions would not qualify for it, and he is said to be unpopular with his company, so a unanimous vote is highly unlikely.
