What were the accomplishments of the main Roman Emperors?
Though Christianity grew in influence it was the emperors who truly defined Rome. We’ve heard incredible stories including one who made his horse a leader in his government. Obviously things like this are Fractures in the timeline. There’s no way that could have really happened… Could it? Find out and report back to me.
