Why Did The Roman Empire Collapse? With Mary Beard
In this Odyssey documentary, Mary Beard tackles one of history's great debates: why the Roman Empire fell. She questions whether this ancient superpower truly collapsed, and if so, when and why, weighing the many theories against the evidence. Beard's sharp, sceptical approach brings clarity to a famously murky subject. For lovers of ancient history, it is a stimulating look at the end of Rome. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
