Senators seeking peace with Sulla
Senators Seeking Peace with Sulla.
Sulla had been declared dictator for an unlimited term in 81 BC. He undertook the reconstruction of the government, but the obstacles and difficulties were innumerable, and his own vehement temper prevented a successful management of many of the delicate questions that came before him. When his despotism was finally absolute, he suddenly resigned the dictatorship in 79 BC and died soon after.

Divitiacus before Caesar
Political Intrigue - Pompey and Caesar - Divitiacus before Caesar.
"Roman history had reached a period when the grand days of the Republic were gone out in darkness, or as some observers said, when patriotism vanished, and there was simply a struggle among a few ambitious men as to who should attain supreme power. These men were the leaders of warring mobs, which might number five, ten, fifty of a hundred thousand rioters, but they were mobs none the less, and most of them were swayed by the basest passions. Woeful indeed was the condition of the country that had once been the grandest in the whole world. . . ."

Would you like to read the rest of this assessment and who Divitiacus was? Despair not. We have it available in printable *.tif format (24 pages) upon your request and a small donation by leaving your address which no one else will see in the guest book. It will be mailed to you on a CD provided your declared donation covers everything. The interesting account starts with the death of Caesar and ends with the armies meeting on the field of Thapsus and the death of Cato. What can this history tell the reader? Many who have studied Roman history can't help to see parallels with what happens today in the world and in America. That is why it may be not only interesting but also important - as the saying goes, `What comes around, goes around;' or, lets us try to avoid the mistakes of the past.
