An interesting note of trivia: Titus Pullo and Lucius Vorenius were both real Roman soldiers, though unlike in the series they were both centurions. Apparently there was some heroic exchange of saving each other's lives in battle, which got mentioned in Caesar's account, and that's probably where the writers got the names.
The rest of their story, as depicted in the show, is fiction, but very entertaining. For my money, the one thing the show did better than anyone else is to show us what Rome probably really looked like, based on the best current research (and budget limitations!).
