📚 Description / Summary:
The Asterix series is set in ancient Gaul (modern-day France) during the time of the Roman Empire. It tells the story of a small village of Gauls who resist Roman occupation with the help of a magic potion prepared by their druid Getafix, which gives them superhuman strength.
The main hero, Asterix, is a clever and brave warrior, while his best friend Obelix is large, strong, and loves to eat wild boars. Together, they go on exciting adventures — outsmarting Romans, exploring new lands, and standing up for freedom and friendship.
