locksly,
History is just that - its old news. We can learn many things in history but the Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire shows how one nation can have so much and still loose it all.
It tells us that no matter how big you are you can still be taken out good soldier's or not. What killed them was greed and the Christians.
Too much skimming was be taken out by those who did not fight and then there was nothing.
But in there day they were the best and the most ruthless on earth. Now they are history as many before them have become. It's good you read history we should learn from their mistakes and hopefully not make them again.
