The most durable Empire in history, the Roman Empire stretched from Scotland to Libya, from Portugal to Iraq, and existed more than 400 years. Since then continues to live the dream of Rome, and European leaders at all times — from Charlemagne to Napoleon and Mussolini tried to repeat the Roman achievements and have failed. How the Romans managed to unite the people of Europe and to forge a common identity? And what you will need for its revival? Written by one of the most brilliant and eccentric English politicians of our time by Boris Johnson, former London mayor and current Minister of foreign Affairs of great Britain, full of character, life, intrigue, action, and personal assessment, this book is about Rome — exactly the kind of story that we love, vigorous and passionate.
