I, Caesar: The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire

The award-winning series I Caesar takes a fascinating look at the public and private lives of six key men who ruled the Roman Empire. Starting with Julius Caesar, the series charts the rise and fall of Roman power over 600 years through the lives of six of the most charismatic leaders in world history: Julius Caesar, Augustus, Nero, Hadrian, Constantine and Justinian. Their careers were made up of bloody battles and tactical bribery, stunning innovation and profound corruption, dazzling rhetoric and vicious back-stabbing and together they form a picture of the most sophisticated highs and most brutal lows of the Roman Empire's inception, heyday and decline.
