==== Roman Republic ====
* [[Consul]]s: [[Lucius Valerius Flaccus (consul 100 BC)|Lucius Valerius Flaccus]], [[Gaius Marius]] (Marius's sixth consulship).
* [[Manius Aquillius (consul 101 BC)|Manius Aquillius]] celebrates an [[ovation]] for victories in the [[Second Servile War]].
* [[Lucius Appuleius Saturninus]], a [[tribune]], passes a law to [[Redistribution (economics)|redistribute]] land to [[Veteran|military veterans]]. The law requires that all senators swear to abide by it. [[Quintus Caecilus Metellus Numidicus]] refuses and is exiled. He goes to [[Rhodes]] to study philosophy.
* Late summer–autumn: Saturninus stands for tribune again for the following year, and is elected. His associate, the praetor [[Gaius Servilius Glaucia]], attempts to stand for the consulship (illegally, as praetors cannot immediately become consul). A rival candidate, [[Gaius Memmius (proconsul of Macedonia)|Gaius Memmius]], is found murdered by agents of Saturninus and Glaucia, who are declared public enemies by the [[Roman Senate|Senate]]. The Senate issues the ''[[senatus consultum ultimum]]'', and Marius, as consul, defeats his former ally in battle in the [[Roman Forum|Forum]]. Saturninus and his followers surrender on condition that their lives are spared, but they are stoned to death with roof tiles in the [[Curia Hostilia]] by renegade senators.
* The building of the Sanctuary of Fortuna Primigenia, [[Palestrina]], [[Italy]], is begun. The model of it is now kept at the [[Naples National Archaeological Museum|Museo Archeologico Nazionale]], Italy (approximate date).
