John Green explores exactly when Rome went from being the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire. Here's a hint: it had something to do with Julius Caesar, but maybe less than you think. Find out how Caesar came to rule the empire, what led to him gettin...g stabbed 23 times on the floor of the senate, and what happened in the scramble for power after his assassination. John covers Rome's transition from city-state to dominant force in the Mediterranean in less than 12 minutes. The senate, the people, Rome, the Cesarean section, the Julian calendar and our old friend Pompey all make appearances, but NOT the Caesar Salad, as Julius had nothing to do with it.(12:26)

This 8:21video explains how the Romans set up a form of government called the Republic, the most powerful governing body was the Senate. The Senate consisted of 300 people to prevent one person from getting all the power. The video explains how as w...ealth in Rome grew, so did corruption and greed, leading to fights in which Julius Caeser became the leader. He began reforms that helped the poor and strengthened the Empire: food to hungry, work to the jobless, and a road system across Italy. When Caeser asked the people to elect him as dictator for life, the senators killed him to preserve the Republic. A good overview of this time period.

The development of Rome's Flavian amphitheater is the subject of this ten minute video. Financed by the theft of goods from Jews in Israel and built by Jewish captives from 72 AD to 80 AD. The Colosseum was one of the grandest structures in Rome. It ...symbolized the wealth and power of ancient Rome and served as a center of cruel entertainment that involved the slaughter of animals, gladiator fights, and persecutions. Provides many insights into its use and build. Excellent.
