Description
Excerpt from Medieval and Modern Times: An Introduction to the History of Western Europe From the Dissolution of the Roman Empire to the Opening of the Great War of 1914
During the four centuries from the first emperor, Augustus, to the barbarian invasions we hear of no attempt on the part of its subjects to overthrow the Empire or to withdraw from it. The Roman State, it was universally believed, was to endure forever. Had a rebellious nation succeeded in throwing off the rule of the emperor and in establishing its independence, it would simply have placed itself outside the civilized world.
