This week we will continue our investigation of Ancient Rome. We will emphasize on the transition from republic to empire & our focus will be on the leadership of Julius Caesar. We will discuss how Caesar gained popularity & power in Rome through his military conquests. As the week progresses we will look at the formation of the Roman Empire & the role of Augustus (Octavian) after Caesar's murder, at the hands of members of the Roman senate on the Ides (15th) of March! We will also discuss the lasting impact the Romans left for future generations. We will also examine the emergence of Christianity in the Roman Empire & investigate the impact that Christianity had in the empire. Towards the end of the week we will examine how the Roman empire began to decay, & eventually fall at the hands of European tribes.
