The Roman Empire may have fallen—but its legacy still shapes our world.

From a humble settlement on the banks of the Tiber River, Rome rose to become a colossal, unstoppable force. At its height, the Empire stretched across Europe, West Asia, North Africa, and beyond. Never again would the world witness such power and influence.

In this epic narrative, History Brought Alive presents a captivating dive into the legends, facts, and myths of Ancient Rome. Covering thousands of years, this audiobook brings structure and clarity to the vast and complex story of one of history’s greatest civilizations.

In Part One, you’ll uncover:

  • The dramatic fall of the Empire

All of this and more, brought to life in an engaging, easy-to-listen format.
