What Rome Has Passed Down to Us Is Still Alive Today
Language, law, architecture, urban planning, the art of governance… Two thousand years after its fall, the Roman Empire continues to shape our world. This book takes you on a fascinating journey through time, exploring how Roman civilization has influenced the modern West.
