Read The Collapsed Empire – A Brief History of the Fall of the Roman Empire.
Great empires are not built in a day, and in the same way, great empires do not die in a day.
The Roman Empire, the greatest ancient empire in Western history, suffered centuries of suffering and struggled before finally collapsing.
In 27 BC, the Senate officially conferred the title of Octavian Augustus (Emperor) and the Roman Empire was officially established, and from then on, the empire continued to grow until the death of Trajan the Great in 117 AD.
But just as no great man can ever stand at the top of history, no empire can remain strong forever.
After the death of Trajan the Great, the power of the empire began to decline, but under the leadership of the next three illustrious emperors (excluding the co-emperor of Aurelius), the empire still managed to maintain its prosperity and strength. The death of Emperor Aurelius (the old emperor in the film Gladiators) ended the last ** era of Rome.
The mediocrity of Commad led to another great civil war in the history of the empire.
The victor of the civil war in 193, the commander of the Danube Military District, Severus, ascended the throne in Rome, and this emperor led Rome into the troubled third century.
Despite his efforts to bounce back, the Empire's decay could no longer be stopped, and Severus died in a melancholy in the humble barracks of Britain, leaving the Empire behind him in increasingly economic, financial, social, and political crisis.
Although the fall of the Roman Empire was directly related to the barbarian invasion, the barbarian invasion was not the root cause of the empire's demise.
The terrible barbarians of the late Empire, such as the Huns, Goths, and Vendalls, were not in fact extremely powerful, and barbarians like them such as Dacia had already invaded the empire for centuries, but none of them succeeded.
The root cause of the fall of the Roman Empire is to blame for the constant emergence of weak and mediocre rulers and warlords who attacked each other, and the Roman Empire eventually exhausted its strength in constant civil wars.

When you read a work carefully, I believe you all have a lot worth sharing, let's write a good review of the after-reading, and record your gains and feelings. So how to write a more contagious feeling after reading? The following is a 300-word review of "Chinese Historical Stories" that I have collected for you, welcome to read, I hope you can like it.
Don't look down on the loser, he could make a country perish! Let me tell you the story of Fan Ruoshui.
Fan Ruoshui originally wanted to serve the country as an official in the Southern Tang Imperial Examination, but he did not pass the examination. He went to seek refuge with Zhao Kuangyin. (Because of the Yangtze River natural danger, the life of the country in the Southern Tang Dynasty was temporarily saved.)
He accurately measured the width of the Yangtze River, and relied on this to take refuge in Zhao Kuangyin. The Song army built a pontoon bridge over the Yangtze River overnight, breaking through the Southern Tang Dynasty.
You are absolutely surprised after reading it, this unsuccessful student is really amazing! yes, he's really good. He originally had a new heart to serve the country, but the Emperor of the Faint Emperor couldn't choose him, so he had to go to seek refuge with others.
Through this story, I want to tell you that if you don't pass the exam, you don't necessarily have no talent, and if you do, you don't necessarily have talent. If it was in ancient times, you must not look down on the students who fell into the list, but in modern times, you must not look down on all kinds of people, who may change the fate of a country.
During this summer vacation, I read the book "Chinese History", and I felt that China's history is long, and I also felt that China is a wise country, and the breadth and profundity of China's history even amazes foreigners. From the groundbreaking of Pangu to the unification of the Six Kingdoms of Qin Shi Huang to the prosperity. Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty led the common people to defeat the Japanese and drive them out of our land.
As the stories began, I felt as if I had traveled through time and space and entered the world of the ancients, whose bravery, wisdom, kindness, and tenacity all educated and moved me.
In addition to some well-known stories, there is a story of "Zuo Zongtang Recovering Xinjiang" in the last years of the Qing Dynasty I was particularly moved, Zuo Zongtang knew that he was old and should have spent his old age at home, but he let the soldiers carry a coffin and still go to war, in order to inspire the soldiers, and finally, it took him less than 2 years to recover the lost territory in Xinjiang and maintain the territorial sovereignty of our country. I admired his heroic story, and I also learned from it that I should be brave to face all kinds of difficulties encountered in my studies, master more skills, and become a useful person to society and the country in the future.
I love reading the book "Chinese History", which records China's past, which makes me deeply understand the pride of being a Chinese, and inspires me to study hard, master more skills, and contribute to the motherland in the future.

Don't look down on the students who don't fall off the list.
It is possible for him to perish a nation! Let me tell you the story of Fan Ruoshui.
Fan Ruoshui originally wanted to serve the country as an official in the Southern Tang Imperial Examination.
The result was not obtained. He went to seek refuge with Zhao Kuangyin. (Because of the Yangtze River natural danger, the life of the country in the Southern Tang Dynasty was temporarily saved.) He accurately measured the width of the Yangtze River.
With this, he took refuge in Zhao Kuangyin. The Song army built a pontoon bridge over the Yangtze overnight.
Broke through the Southern Tang Dynasty.
You'll be absolutely amazed after reading it.
This unsuccessful student is really amazing! Oh, yes.
He's really good. He originally had a new heart to serve the country.
As a result, the Emperor of the Faint Emperor failed to choose him.
He had no choice but to seek refuge in others.
Through this story.
I want to tell you.
If you don't pass the exam, you don't necessarily have no talent.
If you are admitted, you may not be talented. If only in ancient times.
Don't look down on the students who don't make the list.
If only in modern times.
You must not look down on all kinds of people.
They have the potential to change the fate of a nation. Southern Tang.

At lunch today, I was able to talk to the boys about World War II, and they were shocked to know how I knew so much about military affairs.
Yes, I used to be like all women, I didn't watch any TV or movies about military themes, and I also learned very vaguely about this part of history. However, when the real history was recreated in front of me on TV, I could stay up all night watching it and watch it all night.
History is incomparably cruel, I have to be glad that I live in an era of peace, there is no war, I admire all the great geniuses in history, their deeds make me feel more and more ordinary and small.
One can fill the world with sin, like Hitler, like Mussolini.
One person can save a country, like Roosevelt, like Charles de Gaulle, like Peter the Great. I often wonder, how did these great men cultivate?
However, in the struggle between good and evil, justice is always the victorious side!
This is the guarantee that each of us will live safely in the world, and thanks to these great men, who have pulled history back and time again.
The prime minister I admire is also a great figure, and I once again saw him in the impact materials of the Bandung Conference. His quick thinking, outstanding eloquence, and noble personality charm have been a model for me to learn from all my life.
The history is too long and too long, I don't know how to write to express my feelings after reading this**. I just feel that my talent is too shallow, it's really endless, what I know will always be so little!
