Rome
Rome
År 52 f.kr. Firehundrede år efter republikkens fødsel er Rom verdens rigeste by, en kosmopolitisk storby med en million indbyggere, centrum for et spredt imperium. Republikken blev grundlagt på principperne om delt magt og skarp personlig konkurrence, hvor en mand aldrig fik mulighed for at tage magten alene. Men nu står principperne for fald, fortæret af korruption og udskejelser.
Efter otte års krig bliver soldaterne Lucius Vorenus og Titus Pullo uforvarende blandet ind i de historiske begivenheder i det gamle Rom. Et seriedrama om kærlighed og forræderi, herrer og slaver, mænd og kvinder, Rome fortæller historien om en turbulent tidsalder, hvor republikken faldt, og imperiet blev født.

I was continuously surprised by the show's ability to stay interesting while keeping the broad strokes of the history accurate.
I found myself frequently fact checking the major events while watching, and the depiction here always got high marks from me. The real history is generally more bureaucratic and convoluted, but the end result is always as shown.
Pullo and Vorenus are both interesting and likable, and it's a privilege to stay with them through this complex period of Rome's history. Turns out many modern problems are also Roman problems, it's truly fascinating to see how much of modern society and government is directly distilled from that system.
