“I was under the impression that the Roman Empire began in 753 B.C. and lasted until 476 A. D. That is slightly longer than 200 - 300 years.”

The Roman Kingdom started in 753 BC and ended in 509 BC, the “Republic” dated from 509 BC to 27 BC, the “Empire” dated to AD 476 and then morphed into the Byzantine Empire that lasted until 1453 AD.

A 2100 year run, sort of.
