Synopsis

This book presents a detailed analysis of the history of the Roman Republic and the decline of its values and political system under the rule of Emperor Tiberius. The author argues that while the Roman Republic began with high ideals and a commitment to law and order, over time it became increasingly corrupt and power-hungry. The decline accelerated under Tiberius, who used his position to eliminate his rivals and consolidate his power, ultimately leading to the end of the Republic and the establishment of the Roman Empire. The author traces the motivations and actions of various historical figures during this period, providing insights into the dynamics of power and the fragility of democratic institutions.
