Roman empire was huge! They spread far and wide in the world. I was in Italy last year and was impressed with their amazing history. One of the greqatest empires in the world, only rivaled by the Egyptian empire.

I've been reading a lot on the Minoans, Greeks and Romans for the last few years. It's amazing how their influence echoes down to us thousands of years later.

Your title reminds me of my favourite history podcast, Fall of Civilisations by Paul Cooper. Best story telling on the internet.

Melted past. Brick buildings got electrifried. Rocks are heat damaged bricks. Geology is a hoax and History is a total fabrication.
