The assassination of Julius Caesar was supposed to save the Roman Republic. Instead, it destroyed it. In its place was an empire with a series of brutal dictators, each pushing it closer to the point of extinction. Phil Valentine and Campbell Valentine close the book on Rome in Part 03: The Rise and Fall of an Empire.
