    That's why I advocate Mary Beard's "fourteen emperors" as a basis of a history of Rome collection.

    :) naw, I advocate Roman Kings and Republic history up to the Gracchii Brothers to 121 BCE. Afterwards, they had a nasty Civil War in which they lost politically, but won militarily. This quickly set the stage for Imperators to become all but Kings in name. Interesting that Rome became a Republic, with the Tribes voting in Magistrates in 509 BCE, which is about the time Athens was creating THEIR voting democracy!
    :D
