The idea of empire was created in ancient Rome & even today the Roman empire offers a powerful image for thinking about imperialism. Traces of its monuments & literature can be found across Europe the Near East & North Africa
- & sometimes even further afield. This is the story of how this mammoth empire was created how it was sustained in crisis & how it shaped the world of its rulers & subjects
- a story spanning a millennium & a half. Chapters that tell the story of the unfolding of Romes empire alternate with discussions based on the most recent evidence into the conditions that made the Roman imperial achievement possible & also so durable covering topics as diverse as ecology slavery & the cult paid to gods & men. Rome was not the only ancient empire. Comparison with other imperial projects helps us see what it was that was so distinctive about ancient Rome. Ancient Rome has also often been an explicit model for other imperialisms. Rome An Empires Story shows quite how different Roman imperialism was from modern imitations. The story that emerges outlines the advantages of Rome had over its neighbours at different periods
- some planned some quite accidental
- & the stages by which Romes rulers successively had to change the way they ruled to cope with the problems of growth. As Greg Woolf demonstrates nobody ever planned to create a state that would last more than a millennium & a half yet the short term politics of alliances between successively wider groups created a structure of extraordinary stability. Romes Empire was able in the end to survive barbarian migrations economic collapse & even the conflicts between a series of world religions that had grown up within it in the process generating an imagery & a myth of empire that is apparently indestructible.

The present day but a very different one to the world we know.. . The Roman Empire stretches across the Atlantic & far into Asia yet it is an unstable time. Strange fires burn out of control; the Emperor falls suddenly ill & a massacre in the shadow of the Great Wall of Terranova brings the world to the brink of a global war. At this critical time three years after a conspiracy against his life forced him into hiding the young heir to the throne Marcus Novius must take command of the greatest power on Earth. But his ambitious cousin Drusus
- spurred on by a riddling Sybilline prophecy
- threatens this last chance to avoid a world conflict & Una a former slave whose love for Marcus seems out of place at the Roman court is drawn into the political intrigue & a dangerous enmity. Though many of Marcus friends & supporters are scattered he can rely on the driven sharp-witted Una her idealistic brother Sulien now working to relieve the suffering of slaves & Varius wounded & disillusioned by the past but still committed to the vision of a better Rome. But even these three will find their lives at risk & their loyalties tested as they encounter unforeseen conflicts & the manoeuvrings of shadowy forces. Both within the Empire & far beyond its borders simmering tensions are starting to reach boiling point.. .
