by Christopher Scarre (Author)
The Roman Empire remains one of the most formative influences on the history of Europe and its ideal of a united Europe has haunted politicians ever since. This atlas traces the rise and fall of the first great multinational state - the Roman Empire. It examines its provinces and cities, its trade and economy, its armies and frontier defences, follows its foreign wars and internecine struggles, and charts its transformation into a Christian theocracy and assesses its lasting impact.
