This animated story is part of the documentary "Roman City" (made by David Macaulay). I simply cut out the four animated storytelling parts from the documentary. For those interested in the full documentary, it's available on this Google Video link:

Storyline:
The province of Gaul, now France, was brought under Roman control by Julius Caesar. Many of the Celtic people of Gaul, particularly the Druids, were not happy to be ruled by Rome. The fictional city of Verbonia exemplifies a conquered Gallic settlement. Continued taxation leads the tax collector's countrymen to report him to Caesar Augustus, who recalls him to Rome to become a food taster. Even so, Celts continue to revolt at Verbonia and are harshly punished by the Romans. The architect of Verbonia asks Caesar Augustus to pardon the chieftain who has been punished after Celtic uprisings. Caesar grants his wish. Later, the chieftain's daughter halts an assassination attempt and she and her father are rewarded with Roman citizenship.
