Kompletní popis

What really happened when Rome fell?

In 476 AD, the last Roman Emperor was deposed - and the world Europe had known for five centuries collapsed almost overnight. What followed was not simply darkness. It was something far more dramatic: the violent birth of a new world.

After Rome: The Dark Centuries takes you inside the turbulent years between the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the rise of Charlemagne. Meet the warlords who carved Europe into kingdoms, the monks who preserved civilization in flickering candlelight, and the ordinary people who survived catastrophe and built something new from the ruins.

Discover:

  • Why Rome really fell - and why the answer is more complicated than you think
  • How the Catholic Church became the most powerful institution in Europe
  • The rise of the Franks, the Visigoths, and the other "barbarian" kingdoms
  • How Byzantine Constantinople kept Roman civilization alive for another thousand years
  • The world that set the stage for everything that followed

Written with the pace of a thriller and the depth of serious scholarship, After Rome is history that reads like an adventure - because it was one.

Book One of The Medieval Saga - an 8-volume journey through the most dramatic centuries in human history.
