Rome is a city of myth and legend. The Eternal City, the city of the seven hills, the sacred city, the caput mundi, the center of the world, Roma, Rome, by any of her many names is a city built of history and blood, marble and water, war and conquest.
There was an Empire depicts the rise and fall of the first modern civilization the world had ever known-the Roman Empire.
The piece validates the greatness that was the Roman Empire by describing its origin right from its regal down to its imperial system of government. Rome's greatness stems from its unique culture of adapting to the culture and values of its conquered provinces.
Through its culture of adaptability and flexibility, the Roman Empire inculcated Latin from the province of Latium, alphabets, and religion from the Etruscans, as well as arts and architecture from the Ancient Greeks. Rome's culture of adaptability also led to its later adoption of Christianity as its official religion.
This piece describes the Roman Empire's ability to adapt through foreign and domestic unrest, traces the Roman Empire's systems of government, mayhem (both internal and external), expansion strategies, tradition, religion, and laws to show why it has since been considered as the inception of Western Civilisation.
