A History Of The Later Roman Empire, AD 284-641...


Rome had begun expanding shortly after the founding of the Roman Republic in the 6th century BC, though it did not expand outside the Italian Peninsula until the 3rd century BC.[5][6][7][8] Civil war engulfed the Roman state in the mid 1st century BC, first between Julius Caesar and Pompey, and finally between Octavian and Mark Antony. Antony was defeated at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC. In 27 BC, the Senate made Octavian imperator ("commander") thus beginning the Principate, the first epoch of Roman imperial history usually dated from 27 BC to AD 284; they later awarded him the name Augustus, "the venerated". Subsequent emperors all took this name as the imperial title Augustus.

The languages, architectural styles, religions, legal and political institutions of many countries are based on or influenced by Roman precursors. This double module provides an introduction to Roman History and society, paying particular attention to the Republic and the transformation of the state to monarchy under Augustus, and the later Roman Empire, the adoption of Christianity and the creation of the institutions of early Medieval Europe.
