Think you know Rome? Prove it.
From the legend of Romulus to the empire that never quite ended, The Ultimate Ancient Rome Trivia Book packs 500 multiple-choice questions into ten themed rounds covering emperors and legions, gods and gladiators, roads, aqueducts, and the long decline and fall. And after every round, a Deep Dive essay tells the real story behind one of Rome's best-known myths or mysteries.
What's inside:
- 500 multiple-choice questions, 50 in each of 10 themed rounds, four options per question
- An answer key after every round, with a one-sentence explanation for every answer
- 10 Deep Dive essays, one after each round, each ending with its sources
- A How to Play page for solo play, head-to-head races, or trivia night
- A guide to the other books in the Ultimate History Trivia series
The ten rounds:
- Kings, Republics, and Civil Wars
- The Emperors
- Daily Life in Rome
- The Legions
- Roman Engineering and Architecture
- Religion and Mythology
- Provinces and Frontiers
- Famous Battles
- Decline and Fall
- Roman Legacy
The Deep Dives include:
- Was there really a Romulus? What archaeology has found
- How much of the "mad emperor" stories should you believe?
- Rome's famous sanitation: did it actually work?
- What a legionary really got paid, and why it nearly broke the empire
- The Roman concrete that modern engineers struggled to explain
- How Rome recruited foreign gods as well as worshipping its own
- What was Hadrian's Wall actually for?
- Cannae: the battle generals have been trying to copy ever since
- Why historians still can't agree on why Rome fell
- Why Rome didn't really end in 476
A great gift for history lovers, classics students, travelers headed to Italy, and anyone who thinks about the Roman Empire more often than they'd admit. It works for family game nights, road trips, classrooms, and trivia nights, or for testing yourself one round at a time.
