The ENTIRE History of Rome Rise and Fall In 15 Minutes

Описание: The ENTIRE History of Rome in 15 minutes—from village to empire to ruin. This is the complete story of how a single city conquered the known world, ruled for 500 years, then collapsed so completely it took Europe 1,000 years to recover.

In 753 BCE, Rome was a collection of villages on seven hills. By 117 CE, it ruled 90 million people across three continents—25% of the world's population. The empire built 400,000 kilometers of roads, invented concrete, created legal systems modern nations still use, and dominated the Mediterranean for five centuries.

Then it fell. Not from a single cause, but from a perfect storm: overextension, economic collapse, military reliance on barbarian mercenaries, and the inability to adapt when expansion stopped. In 410 CE, Visigoths sacked Rome for the first time in 800 years. By 476 CE, the last Western Roman emperor was deposed by a Germanic general. The empire was over.

But Rome's fall teaches us something critical: empires built for conquest can't survive peace. When Rome stopped expanding, the machine broke down. The pattern has repeated throughout history.
