520    The very idea of empire was created in ancient Rome and 
       even today traces of its monuments, literature, and 
       institutions can be found across Europe, the Near East, 
       and North Africa-and sometimes even further afield. In 
       Rome, historian Greg Woolf expertly recounts how this 
       mammoth empire was created, how it was sustained in crisis,
       and how it shaped the world of its rulers and subjects-a 
       story spanning a millennium and a half of history. The 
       personalities and events of Roman history have become part
       of the West's cultural lexicon, and Woolf provides 
       brilliant retellings of each of these, from the war with 
       Carthage to Octavian's victory over Cleopatra, from the 
       height of territorial expansion under the emperors Trajan 
       and Hadrian to the founding of Constantinople and the 
       barbarian invasions which resulted in Rome's ultimate 
       collapse. Throughout, Woolf carefully considers the 
       conditions that made Rome's success possible and so 
       durable, covering topics as diverse as ecology, slavery, 
       and religion. Woolf also compares Rome to other ancient 
       empires and to its many later imitators, bringing into 
       vivid relief the Empire's most distinctive and enduring 
       features. As Woolf demonstrates, nobody ever planned to 
       create a state that would last more than a millennium and 
       a half, yet Rome was able, in the end, to survive 
       barbarian migrations, economic collapse and even the 
       conflicts between a series of world religions that had 
       grown up within its borders, in the process generating an 
       image and a myth of empire that is apparently 
       indestructible.
