Manage episode 466282542 series 3591999
Rome’s victory did more than defeat a rival; it annihilated the one power that had stood as its greatest obstacle. With its most formidable enemy wiped from the map, the balance of power in central Italy shifted permanently. No force remained to contain Rome’s ambition. The republic had proven its ability to wage long, brutal war and emerge stronger. From this moment forward, its rise was not a possibility... it was an inevitability.
