Who were the Romans and how did this small tribe come to dominate
Italy before establishing the largest empire the world has ever
seen? Why were the Romans such brilliant innovators, responsible
for inventions including newspapers, concrete, surgeon’s tools
and even an efficient postal system? What made their army
invincible and their buildings so remarkable? And why, eventually,
did the whole empire come crashing down? David Long explains what
life was actually like for ordinary Romans as well as their famous
emperors, while also looking at the lingering influence of Roman
civilisation throughout the world.
