The traditional dates for the Roman Republic are 509 to 27 B.C. The latter part of this period from 133 to 27 B.C. is known as the late Republic. It is also known as the Roman Revolution.

All good things come to an end. Rome was a seamlessly powerful empire, but just like any powerful civilization, it was bound to come to a halt eventually. After centuries of peace and prosperity and being the center of the world at the time, the empire was doomed to fall.

Many foolish decisions and revisions caused the heart and soul of Rome to crumble.…
