The rise and fall of the Roman em
pire were both accompanied by wars.
Out’of about a thousand years of
Roman rule there were only a short
hundred years of peace. History does
not quite make plain how Rome came
to spoil her record by this spiritless
interlude of peace but it may have
marked the beginning of the decadence
of the legionaries.
