History of Western Civilisation - Tuesday 7th Period: Discussion 6: The Roman Empire

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

All right, class. Since I rotted your brains last Wednesday with popular culture disguised as history, I thought we'd get back on track today with a good solid discussion of the end of the Roman Empire.

As I said last week, the fall of Rome did not really mean the end of the Roman empire. The Byzantine Empire -- which you will hear about tomorrow -- lasted for another thousand years and always considered itself a continuation of old Rome.

But the cession of Rome as a superpower changed the face of history in Western Europe.

Janet signed in. She may as well put the pen stuck to her hand to some use, after all.

Archie signed in and wondered why Janet seemed to be so attached to that pen. It didn't seem like all that fancy a writing implement . . .

It wasn't even one of her favorite pens. Janet glared at it, then shrugged when she noticed Archie staring at her.

She might have tried to surreptitiously shake the pen out of her hand, but the ripped piece of paper stuck to her index finger was probably a little too noticeable.
