"l'he rise of Rome, from provincial settLement to imperial power,is an epic story that reads like fiction rather than fact. Fable doesindeed pLay a part: RomuLus is said to have slain his twin brotherRemus and founded the future city-state, both infants havingsurvived abandonment on the banks of the Tiber thanks to thenurturing miLk of a she-woLf.When myth is stripped away, whatremains is hardly Less extraordinary.
Ancient Rome traces alL facets of one of the world's greatestciviLizations, from the Legends surrounding Rome's foundation tothe strife that precipitated the Empire's collapse. It describes aremarkable imperiaL power that Left an indeLibLe mark on the Landsit occupied. The face of Europe today would be radically differentwere it not for the rich culturaL, technoLogicaL, linguistic, andadministrative Legacy bequeathed it by the Romans.
