Description
|
|
|
|
This four-disc documentary tells the story of the rise and fall of one of history's greatest empires, beginning with first Roman-Barbarian War and concluding with a terror-gripped republic, clinging to the rim of the Mediterranean as waves of Barbarian attacks smash through its imperial border. Vivid recreations offer a firsthand look at the chaotic state of an empire in flames, while compelling characters on both sides fight for victory. Teeming streets, horseback battles, warring armies, and gladiatorial contests coexist with legendary tales of Roman debauchery and excess.
