I am a fan of practically all the Roman reliefs, I don't really have a favorite era

Cannae cuz it was a defeat that very possibly could have brought an end to Rome

so it was Macedonian?

The ownership of Corinth changed alot throughout history, I have been searching google for ages and I couldn't find it so I'll ask you guys. Which country owned Corinth in 280bc?

thnx guys

I am curious as to the opinion of the members on this board because you guys seem educated and you know what you are talking about. Was Rome better of as a Republic or an Empire? I personally feel it was better of as a Republic because the original Roman constitution balanced the relations between the Senate, acting Consul, and the People and when the emperors came in they upset that balance and when a bad emperor was in power they would not be checked as severely by the senate and the people.

I was scrolling through the emperor list but I couldn't find it so I decided to consult you guys. What was the name of the Emperor who was the first to except Christianity as the official Roman religion?

The testudo was a good formation for protection against arrows but it wouldn't work for any sort of melee. Just think all a soldier would have to do was trip while he was inside the formation and it would most likely fall apart.
