The History of the Roman Empire covers the History of Ancient Rome from the Fall of the Roman Republic in 27 BC until the Abdication of the lLst Western Emperor in 476 AD. Rome had begun expanding shortly after the Founding of the Republic in the 6th Century BC, though it did not expand outside of the Italian Peninsula until the 3rd Century BC... In its many Centuries of Existence, the Roman State evolved from a Monarchy to a Classical Republic and then to an increasingly Autocratic Empire. Through Conquest and Assimilation, it eventually dominated the Mediterranean Region, Western Europe, Asia Minor, North Africa, and Parts of Northern and Eastern Europe. It is often grouped into Classical Antiquity together with Ancient Greece, and their Similar Cultures and Societies are known as the Greco-Roman World.
After some 1200 Years of Independence and nearly 700 Years as a Great Power, the rule of Rome in the West ended. Various Reasons for Rome's Fall have been proposed ever since, including Loss of Republicanism, Moral Decay, Military Tyranny, Class War, sSavery, Economic Stagnation, Environmental Change, Disease, the Decline of the Roman Race, as well as the Inevitable Ebb and Flow that all Civilizations Experience... The Eastern Empire had a Different Fate. It survived for Almost 1000 Years after the Fall of its Western Counterpart and became the Most Stable Christian Realm during the Middle Ages.
