Summary
Pernel Media is expanding its 'Rise And Fall Of' documentary franchise with a new series focused on the Roman Empire. The series will cover the entire 1,200-year history of Rome in a continuous narrative, from its founding kings to the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. The central thesis is that Rome never truly ended, as its laws, languages, architecture, and political institutions remain foundational to modern civilization. The documentary will combine on-location archaeological footage with AI-powered historical reconstructions. This follows previous installments covering the Mayas, Incas, and Aztecs.
