Roman History
To talk of the history of the monumental movement and wave of changed named Caesar, we must also speak of the whole of Rome's History as well.
Literally the greatest empire the earth has ever know, and it is much more than just facts and figures. It is both the glorious achievements of mankand, and at times, the contemptible behaviors as well.
In just centuries, Rome grew from a very small village in central Italy to the absolute dominant power of the peninsula. In a few more centuries, the Empire's might reached as north as Britain, east as Persia and south as the entirety of Northern Africa. Rome's extraordinary achievements and the unbeatable string of influential people shaped the whole of Europe and even the rest of the world.
One super powered nation, stretching over thousands of cultures, kept stability and civilization in the ancient world filled with turmoil. The fall of Rome, and the Dark Ages that followed, shows the awesome responsibility, influence, reach and impact of the Empire. Even today, Roman law and foundation of government forms the basis of democracies. Rome's monuments still stand the test of time, awing and inspiring us. The language, while it is unspoken, forms the basis in many modern tongues.
Christianity, the final faith of the Empire, was spread like wild-fire through the highly sophisticated connections.
