The world’s first republic, an incredible military machine, bridges and roads that are still used today, and political philosophy that shaped modern democracies: the Roman Republic had all this, and much more!
The Roman Republic’s metamorphosis from a modest city-state to a territory covering three continents spanned five centuries of challenges and change. The unending drama included the working classes' struggles for political power, the Celts sacking Rome, and a slave revolt that grew to include 70000 people. The Roman military learned how to fight war elephants, and built a navy of 100 warships in two months!
Travel back over 2,500 years to learn how the Romans formed a new government the world had never seen before. This lively, easy-to-learn history will guide you through the Roman Republic’s stunning achievements and chaotic internal conflicts.
