A compilation of my Western Rome alternate history series. In which the Western Roman Empire survives with an extended reign of Emperor Majorian, whose effective reforms help the Empire survive, manage dynamics including the reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian, and rise of Islam: And whose long term prospects impact not only demography, but the long term development of feudalism after the dark ages: Impacting not only Europe but the globe.

Bibliography 📖
Goldsworthy, Adrian Keith. How Rome Fell: Death of a Superpower, 2009.
(skimmed for details, really should have read in full: it's the best fall of Rome book is the consensus)

Heather, Peter. The Fall of the Roman Empire: A New History of Rome and the Barbarians. OUP USA, 2007.
(skimmed through for certain details, gave a more army-oriented explanation for the fall, makes sense given his doctorate)

Ward-Perkins, Bryan. The Fall of Rome: And the End of Civilization. Oxford University Press, USA, 2005.
(Great and short book, which challenges idea post-Roman world was smoothly transitioned to, used a chart in the video)
