I would start an empire with me as emperor. I would make my army predominatly land based. I would strive constantly to make my empire bigger and as Julius Caesar said 'the best death is an unexpected one', I wouldnt care if i was assasinated just for the power that those sort of people had!!

They were used to celebrate marriages and birthdays as well as funeral games.

yes, that does show some skill considering the senate would not give up that sort of powere easily.

Politics doesn't invent anything, culture does!!!

Centurions could marry. Soldiers werent allowed to marry but had basic marriage services anyway.

The Romans didn't actually have scientists though. They only had military engineers looking for military advances

But it was often made on religious occasions to honour the gods!

Augustus must have been friendly with the senate, which shows good political skill, if he was acclaimed a god after his death!

Yes thats a good point the chinese were very advanced, they invented gunpowder.

Yes, ive heard all that too. Part of what youre saying is tho that they tended to them out of fear not respect!!

THis is a very interesting subject because everyone says who the greatest general was, but not politician!!!!!!! My favourite is Julius Caesar, but thats probably a biased opinion on how good a general he was!!!

I disagree. Part of the cause of the fall was the split of the empire. Also a lot of the leaders were mad or power stupid. The normal hardworking roman can't have changed that much either
