In The Complete Idiot's Guide® to the Roman Empire you'll learn how the Romans conquered the world, a description of every day life, an in-depth look at Roman society, politics and architecture and an inside look at the famous (and infamous) Roman emperors.

CIG to the Roman Empire0028641515

It's easy to romanticize or demonize ancient cultures, but the more you know, the more complicated things become. While the Romans were insightful, ambitious, pragmatic, and influential people, they could also be cruel, rigid, bloodthirsty, stifling, overly garish and yet a bit drab. But no other civilization has left such an imprint on the laws, lives, borders, religion, literature, politics, art, architecture, and popular imagination of the West. The Complete Idiot's Guide(r) to the Roman Empire discusses the framework of ideals, infrastructure, politics, military tactics, economics, communications, and education that girded together the West.
