Thank you for posting this! History degree though I have, the extent of ancient Rome’s reach is something I’ve at times wondered about but never investigated on my own. You’ve enlightened me :-)
Thanks! The first one is the best of the bunch IMHO, the rest are the best of the bunch that showed up during a YouTube search. There's a lot of apparent plagiarism on YouTube, not to mention purported history buffs who don't know how to spell or pronounce what they're talking about. 😊
