Cause & effect / Nardo, Don

Through narrative supported by quotes, this title begins with a brief history of ancient Rome and then examines questions such as: How Did Dissatisfaction with the Monarchy Give Rise to the Roman Republic?, How Did Internal Conflict Destroy the Republic and Give Birth to an Empire?, How Did a Persecuted Faith Become the Official Religion of Rome?, and How Did External Threats and Internal Decline Cause Western Rome's Demise?.

The ancient Romans created an empire that covered most of Europe and their language, laws, and religion helped to shape the medieval and modern European civilizations that followed Rome’s fall.
