 | | While the first three beast powers were able to be described by known creatures of the animal kingdom, the fourth beast was such a dreadful, terrible and exceedingly strong beast that there was no known living beast that could be utilized to describe it. | | | After their experience with Antiochus Ephiphanes, the Jewish people eventually invited the Romans into the environs of the Middle East hoping that they would be a deterrent to any future Greek occupation. | | | In today's world, many people are expecting a great beast to arise, but the truth is that the beast kingdoms have been in power ever since Babylon arose millennia ago. |

| | Western Romans simply would not regard Arian Christians as being of the same confessional group as they were. | | | Compared to this, however, the Lombard invasion was catastrophic. | | | Looked at in retrospect, while the 540s may have presented a return to Roman unity in the Mediterranean basin, the non-stop ravages of the Roman-Gothic wars from 535-52, followed just fifteen years later by the Lombard invasion, signaled the transition from the Late Antique to the Dark Ages for Italy, as well as Byzantium. |

| | In Roman legend, when the Greeks waged war against the city of Troy, the Trojan hero Aeneas sailed across the Mediterranean Sea to Italy and founded Lavinium. | | | The people would no longer tolerate his tyrannical rule when he allowed the rape of Lucretia, a Patrican Roman, at the hands of his own son. | | | This made the king the head of the national religion and chief religious executive. |

| | Finally, when an Etruscan prince of the Etruscan family that ruled Rome, the Tarquins, raped the wife of a patrician, the Romans rose up in revolt and threw the Tarquins out of power in 509 BC. | | | The age of the Roman Republic, an age that would see the greatest expansion of Roman power and numerous wars, had been opened. | | | The patricians were the wealthiest members of society; they controlled most of the wealth, trade, power, and the military. |

| | Roman Emperor - Psychology Central |
| | For a discussion of the Emperor's claimed godhead, see "imperial cult". | | | In that way Julius Caesar had gone a considerable part of the road: he held the Republican offices of consul (four times) and dictator (five times), was appointed perpetual dictator (dictator perpetuus) in 45 BC, had been "pontifex maximus" for several decades and had handsomely prepared for his deification (see Imperial cult). | | | Though during his own lifetime Odoacer maintained the legal fiction that he was actually ruling Italy as the viceroy of Zeno, historians mark 476 as the traditional date of the fall of the Roman Empire in the West. |

| | In the 16th century a central area was delimited around Portico d'Ottavia, for the creation of the famous Roman Ghetto, an area which the Jews were forced to live in. | | | After the fall of the Roman Empire, Rome soon became the capital city of the Papal States, the territorial entity ruled by the Papacy that would last until 1870, when Italy was unified by the former king of Sardinia. | | | 343 BC-146 BC - Roman expansion and conquest of Italian peoples (Etruscans, Samnites, Tarentini), African peoples (Carthage), Hellenic peoples (Macedones, Greeks), Asian peoples (Syrians, Rhodenses, Pergamus), Gaulish peoples (Ligures, Caenomanes, Veneti), and Iberiann peoples (Lusitani, Celtiberians). |

| | The Romans had no since of dating beyond their own list of magistrates, and when they became familiar with more elaborate Greek chronologies in the third and second centuries BC, attempts were made to correlate the two systems. | | | As the Romans came to dominate the Mediterranean and their history had to be correlated with that of the more historically aware Greeks, an effort was made to relate the fasti (list of Roman magistrates) directly to the Greek chronological systems. | | | The Romans themselves had a system of naming the years after eponymous magistrates (consuls) and had lists of these magistrates supposedly going back to the first year of the Republic. |
