A similar miniseries could probably be made about the Klintoon administration.

like everything else, they will spice it up...ignoring the reality.
In ancient Rome, there were many quiet people who loved their spouses and children...cared for their slaves, or if slaves cared for their masters...who prayed every day to the gods, and some to God (Christians and Jews often served in the emperor's court...because they were honest and hardworking...)

Rome, a drama set in the dying days of the Roman Empire, ... The new series opens in 52BC And yet there was no Roman Empire before 30BC

Thanks FairO, for the FReemail about this. I guess it's more a sociology ping, so I'll just add it to the catalog without pinging everyone else (besides managers).
To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. Thanks. Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on or off the
"Gods, Graves, Glyphs" PING list or GGG weekly digest
-- Archaeology/Anthropology/Ancient Cultures/Artifacts/Antiquities, etc.

Accusations of sexual debauchery are leveled in societies that still care about sexual propriety. They did. What actually was vastly worse in Rome than anyone could possibly stomach today was the casual violence and cruelty. But they won't play that up too much, because only a S and M is it part of their own idea of a good time. They are sick, the Romans were sick, but the sicknesses are different.
