ROMAN REPUBLIC

A monarchy gone bad - and the stage is set for revolt. What follows is a government whose leaders set out to dominate the entire Mediterranean world. Join us as we meet those who dared overthrow a king and whose descendants defeated such skilled generals as Hannibal. But, not all went well and rifts among the classes and people within the Roman Republic sparked dissension. Learn how the Gracchi brothers fought to preserve the people's rights and then how a few generals turned a country's army into one that served their personal needs. Take a quick tour of the city and then get ready for a bit of comedy as you follow the lives of several of the city's citizens.
