History - Ancient history - Ancient Rome

This is a List of Ancient Rome-related topics, that aims to include aspects of both the Ancient Roman Republic and Roman Empire. An index of important figures in Ancient Rome can be found in List of ancient Romans. This covers the culture, society and history of the ancient Roman Republic and the classical unitary Roman Empire. It thus covers the period from (approximately) the 5th century BC to the 6th century AD, and clumps together elements ranging from the affairs of a small city state on the banks of the river Tiber to the sociology of an empire sprawling from Cumbria and Morocco to the Euphrates.
