PRODUCT SUMMARY
For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- The Roman Empire has left a deep and lasting imprint on the history of Western civilization. Citizens of Rome flourished thanks to an organized agricultural system and a transportation network that contributed to the Empire’s prosperous trade and military might. But Rome’s wealth became its very downfall as a mass movement of migratory tribes poured over its borders, overwhelming the Empire. In this program, students will explore ancient Rome from its legendary origins on the hills overlooking the River Tiber to its end in the year 476. Part of the multivolume The Fall of Great Empires Video Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and is available online.
