Gnaeus Pompeius was the oldest son of Pompey the Great (Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus) by his third wife, Mucia Tertia. His younger brother was Sextus Pompeius, from the same mother. Both boys grew up in the shade of his father, one of Rome's best generals and originally non-conservative politician who drifted to the more traditional faction when Julius Caesar became a threat. When Caesar crossed the Rubicon in 49 BC, thus starting a civil war, Gnaeus followed his father in their escape to the East, as did most of the conservative senators.

Caesar and his legions soon follow and, on March 17, 45 BC the armies met in the battle of Munda. Both armies were very strong in numbers and led by able generals. The battle was heavily fought, but eventually a cavalry charge by Caesar turned the events to his side. Titus Labienus and an estimated 30,000 men of the Pompeian side died not only in the battle, but also in the panicked escape that followed. Gnaeus and Sextus managed to escape once again.

Sextus Pompeius was able to keep one step ahead of his enemies, and outlived his older brother for a number of years.
