The name of Rome excites a picture of power and organisation, as do
the widely-spread ruins that Roman civilization left behind. Yet
Rome grew out of a collection of small villages and major
developments such as the growth of Empire were unplanned and
completely unprepared for.Influenced by a small number of
self-interested aristocrats who lacked a broader vision, Rome was
often threatened by their intrigues. Brought to the ground on a
number of occasions, its leaders were able to snatch victory from
the jaws of defeat. How did Rome survive for nearly 1000 years,
ruling over millions of people with few instances of internal
rebellion? David Shotter argues that the key was the way Rome
managed to adapt to new circumstances, without at the same time
discarding too many of its cherished traditions.
