After all, imperial Rome was one of the first successful \"melting pots\" of cultures. The Romans took what worked and discarded what didn't work, showing that it was possible to have a stable, centralized government over an extremely large area. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn the first part of this book, you learn includes the following: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe downfall of the Roman Republic and the emergence of the illustrious Roman Empire;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaesar's life and conquests, as well as his ultimate assassination at the hands of his senators;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe fascinating life of Octavian Augustus and the start of the Pax Romana;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGradual \"reduction\" in the quality of emperors, starting with bureaucratic Tiberius, who ultimately left Rome;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe incredible life of Tiberius's successor, Caligula, who gained much notoriety;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe long reign of Emperor Claudius, whose two wives, Messalina and Agrippina the Younger, shaped the future of Rome;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNero, who (maybe) set Rome on fire and who was most certainly a very unusual emperor with a penchant for the arts;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Flavians and the Five Good Emperors, who led imperial Rome into its most prolific period;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe gradual but consistent erosion of traditional Roman values and its ultimate dissolution into early medieval Europe;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Roman Empire reached its zenith within the first two centuries of the fall of the Roman Republic, expanding its territory and spreading its influence well beyond the borders of Europe. During that time, a sort of global peace was achieved, which historians call the Pax Romana. Throughout the pages of this tome, you'll get brief glimpses of the reigns of many emperors who made the Pax Romana into what it was. Discover the Pax Romana's long-term effects and how it managed to cement the Roman Empire as the go-to empire for many later civilizations to try and emulate. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn the second part of this book, you'll gain new knowledge on the following facts: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the empire evolved from the former republic and who the men were that brought about the changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat made the reign of each emperor unique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat some of the more turbulent times during this overarching period of peace were\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho the best emperors during the Pax Romana were, and which ones were considered the worst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat role the provinces and territorial expansion played in the growth and development of the empire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the imperial Romans were stratified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat societal changes came about with the abolition of the republic and the return to a monarchic model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the everyday Romans lived during the Pax Romana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow big of a role the Roman army played in maintaining the peace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow prominent the Senate was and whether or not its role was diminished or reinforced during certain periods of the Pax Romana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd so much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScroll up, and give that \"add to cart\" button a click to learn more about the Roman Empire!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11249418\"\u003eCaptivating History\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Captivating History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.49d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781637167892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 163716789X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-EDU\"\u003eEducation\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-EDU016000\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Captivating History","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44583922204909,"sku":"9781637167892","price":18.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_0dcb531c-8c0d-4cbc-b9be-6ec2043302cb.jpg?v=1702132298","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/roman-empire-a-captivating-guide-to-imperial-rome-and-pax-romana-9781637167892","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
