Potentially Interesting Roman History

It's Roman. It's history. And it's potentially quite interesting. A sidelong look into the history of the Roman Empire and the Roman world in general, covering death, life, taxes, politics, naughty things, stabby things, unbelievable displays of avarice, poverty, humour, tragedy, religion, food, drink and prostitution. All the important life skills covered in a world two thousand years from our own but eerily familiar. And the vast majority of it is absolutely true.
