När Augustus grep makten under den utdragna maktkampen i spåren av mordet Julius Caesars genomlevde Rom en djup identitetskris. Republiken hade kollapsat, och ett nytt imperium växte fram – styrt av en man som vägrade titulera sig kung, men ändå utövade envälde i praktiken. För att befästa sin ställning och skapa den långvariga freden – Pax Romana – insåg Augustus att han behövde kontrollera mer än armén och senaten; han måste också forma romarnas värderingar, livsstil och kultur. Men han lyckades inte kontrollera sin egen dotter Julia.I det sjätte och avslutande avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Ett av de tydligaste uttrycken för detta var Augustus försök att kontrollera det privata livet – särskilt äktenskap, sexualitet och kvinnlig dygd. Genom lagar som Lex Iulia de maritandis ordinibus (18 f.Kr.) och Lex Iulia de adulteriis coercendis (17 f.Kr.) ville Augustus återupprätta så kallade romerska dygder. Gifta medborgare – särskilt från överklassen – förväntades föda fler barn och leva moraliskt. Ogifta kunde drabbas av ekonomiska straff, och äktenskapsbrott blev ett offentligt brott. Kvinnor hamnade i fokus för regleringen: lojalitet, trohet och moderskap framhölls som ideal. Ironiskt nog drabbades hans egen dotter Julia – landsförvisad år 2 f.Kr. för påstått omoraliskt leverne – vilket innebar ett officiellt bakslag för hans moralism.Samtidigt kultiverade han en ny kulturell identitet genom att skydda och uppmuntra den latinska poesin – det som kom att kallas "det gyllene århundradet". Poeter som Horatius, Vergilius och, inledningsvis, Ovidius var nära kopplade till hans hov. Aeneiden av Vergilius blev ett epokgörande nationalepos som förenade myt, historia och Augustusrötter och kopplade honom till guden Venus genom Aeneas släktlinje. Ovidius, vars verk som Metamorfoser och Ars Amatoria klantades med kärlek och förförelse, förvisades till Svarta havets kust år 8 e.Kr. – i ett tydligt tecken på kulturens spänning under Augustus regim.En av hans mest konkreta kvarlevor är byggnadsverk. Augustus återuppbyggde gamla tempel, lät uppföra nya offentliga byggnader och förskönade stadens infrastruktur – allt vitalt för att skapa ett värdigt Rom. I Res Gestae Divi Augusti sammanfattar han sin insats: “Jag tog över en stad av tegel och lämnade en av marmor.” Monument som Ara Pacis och Mars Ultors tempel på Forum Augustum manifesterade hans roll som fredsstiftare och Caesars arvtagare – och fyllde stadsrummet med arkitektonisk symbolik, arbetstillfällen och belöningar för lojalitet. Det nya Rom – mjukgatad i marmor – blev ett monument över hans makt.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

När Julius Caesar mördades den 15 mars 44 f.Kr. förväntade sig många att den romerska republiken skulle återupprättas. I verkligheten bevarades och vidareutvecklades många av hans reformer av hans adoptivson Augustus. Kejsardömet var ett faktum.Caesar och Augustus lade de grunden till kejsardömet efter århundraden av republik. Octavianus, senare Augustus, inledde sin karriär med blod på sina händer. När regimen stabiliserats fick vi Pax Romana – cirka 200 år av fred där litteratur och konst blomstrade med poeter som Vergilius, Horatius och Ovidius.I det femte avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Flera av Caesars reformer var så framgångsrika att de överlevde hans död och sattes i system under kejsartiden. Ett tydligt exempel är den Julianska kalendern, infördes 45 f.Kr. och baserades på solåret med 365 dagar och skottdag vart fjärde år. Den ersatte den tidigare månbaserade kalendern och användes i över 1 600 år – kalendern vi använder idag har sin grund här, och juli är uppkallad efter honom.En annan viktig princip var en utvidgning av medborgarskapet till provinser som Gallien och Spanien, särskilt för dem som tjänat militären. Denna inkluderande strategi banade väg för en enhetlig identitet i riket, och nådde sin kulmen i Caracallas edikt år 212 e.Kr., som gav fullt medborgarskap till alla fria män i imperiet.Augustus, född Gaius Octavius och adopterad av Caesar, fullbordade övergången från republik till kejsardöme. Efter Actium‑segern 31 f.Kr. och att ha antagit titeln Augustus år 27 f.Kr., behöll han republiken som sken men styrde i praktiken enväldigt. Han erhöll imperium maius (överhög befälsrätt) och tribunicia potestas (rätt att sammankalla folkförsamlingen och lägga in veto), samt införde regelbundna folkräkningar.Augustus organiserade ett professionellt ämbetsmannasystem med kompetenta guvernörer, reformerade skattesystemet och stabiliserade myntet. Augustus byggde ett rikstäckande vägnät och postsystem, vilket förbättrade kommunikation och handel.Militärt omorganiserade han armén: legionerna minskades till 28, soldater fick fast tjänstgöringstid och pension. Han skapade pretoriangardet och använde klientstater som buffertzoner, vilket minskade behovet av militärt ständigt närvarande styrka.Augustus genomförde också sociala och religiösa reformer för att återuppliva romerska dygder: morallagar som gynnade äktenskap och barnafödande hos överklassen, återställde tempel, högtider och stärkte kejsarkulten – kejsaren hyllades som nästan gudomlig.Hans storslagna stadsförnyelse illustreras av uttrycket “Jag fann en stad av tegel – lämnade den i marmor.” Forum, tempel och monument byggdes rikstäckande. Dessutom inrättade han brandkår och polis (vigiles) i Rom.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

Send us a textWelcome to a special bonus episode. I shall be posting several bonus episodes over the next week or so whilst I work on our next season together, in which I return to the New Testament and begin our study through Paul's 2nd letter to the church at Corinth. In this episode, we are reposting an episode I originally posted on 10th November 2024, one of a series on ancient philosophy and its influence on the early Christian worldview. In it, I examine how the life and teachings of Socrates, one of history's most iconic philosophers, laid the groundwork for the reception and dissemination of the Christian message. I examine the early Greek Pre-Socratic philosophers and Sophists, as well as the transformative impact of Socrates, and the pivotal role of 1st-century Rome and the Pax Romana in the rise of Christianity. The aim of this episode is to offer insights into the historical and philosophical context that shaped the world in which Christianity emerged.I hope you enjoy it.The Balance of GrayFaith That Challenges.

In this class Dr. Matt gives an overview of Revelation 4-11 showing the way that the church wins is by following the way and witness of the Lamb!Revelation 4:1-11Who is God?V8• Holy, holy holy- the set apart one• Lord, God Almighty- the sovereign one• Who was and is and is to come- the eternal oneV11• Creator• Sustainer“Flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder.”1. Seals = Revelation 8:52. Trumpets = Revelation 11:193. Bowls = Revelation 16:18Even when the world seems like it is spinning out of control, God is in control.Revelation 5• Lion of Judah- Gen 49:9-10• Root of David- Isaiah 11:1• Revelation uses “hearing” and “seeing” to interpret images and flip their meanings.• Jesus rules as a lamb (Rev 5:6)- Power under vs. Power over (Babylon)God's wrath• God's character: Exodus 34:6-7• God's anger in the Bible is His removal of protection and handing people over to naturalconsequences of their choices.• Romans 1:18-32The “Judgements”Seals (Revelation 6:1-17, 8:1-2)Come = reveal yourselfSeals 1 and 2: The Pax Romana (false peace through violence/strength)Seal 3: Economic injustice of Rome.Seal 4: conquest → war → famine → death (Zech 1:8-17; 6:1-8; 2:6)Seal 5: KEY QUESTION: What happens to Christians in the middle of this Roman conquest?ANSWER: Christians die—and that's how we win (witness). And the prayers of God's peopleimpact heaven.Seal 6: Lights out for Empire (Isaiah 13:9-10; Ezek 32:7-8; Isaiah 34:4-5; Amos 8:9; Psalm 18)Seal 7: Eschatological peace (and the 7 trumpets)Trumpets (Rev 8:2-9:21, 11:15-19)The judgement is 1/3- still partial (Rev 12:12)Trumpets were used to warn and to worship in the OTThe Trumpets echo the 10 plagues of the ExodusThe purpose of the Exodus:1. Expose – to expose the gods and judge them2. Unveil – to unveil God's glory and grace3. Repent – to lead God's enemies to repentance (Rev 9:21)• The goal of the trumpets is to unveil evil, empire, and satan's kingdom for what it is.• In the trumpets hell imploding on itself, this is not God being vindictive. Hell attacks its own here, itknows no loyalty or fidelity. You get the consequences of what you attach yourself to.• God is different, even when they refuse to repent from allegiance with Kingdom of Satan, God stillpursues His creation.Bowls (Rev 16:1-21)If the seals expose empire's logic and the trumpets warn of its consequences, the bowls show evil collapsing under its own weight.Key Point: The bowls show the inevitable end of Empire and Evil—it destroys itself.The InterludesBetween the 6th and 7th in each of the 3 cycles there is an interlude which explains what God's peopleare called to know and do.Seals Interlude (Rev 7:1-17)The message of the Seals= You are spiritually secure!• John hears 144,000 but sees every tribe, tongue, and nation worshipping the Lamb= the church• The Q: Who can stand? The Answer: God's people can!Trumpets Interlude (Rev 10:1-11:14)The message of the Trumpets= Go witness! (like the faithful witness Rev 1:5)• 2 witnesses- killed in Jerusalem, dead for 3 days, came back to life, ascended to heaven = Jesus,but it is also the church (his body).• Olive tree and Lamp stand (Zech 4:14): This was the priest and king (Jesus) but in Revelation thechurch is a kingdom and priests to God (Ex 19:6; Rev 1:5-6; Rev 5:9-10; Rev 20:6) and the churchesare called lamp stands- we hold the light (Jesus- Rev 1:12-13. 20; Rev 2:1,5; Rev 21:23; Matt 5:16;John 8:12, 9:5, 12:46)Bowls Interlude (Rev 16:15)The message of the Bowls= Witness by what you do (deeds matter)!• White Clothes = deeds and purity (Rev 19:8; 2:4; 3:2; 14:13; 22:12)• To 5 of 7 church Jesus says “I know your deeds”• What we do (and don't do) matters!We do not own the rights to the Revelation 1-11 video by Bible project and are using is with permission.

Anno 117: Pax Romana is set in the year when the Roman Empire expanded to its greatest extent in all its history; and saw the death of Trajan, who is counted amongst the Five Good Emperors. Trajan was a general first and his military victories made him a mighty leader. But he couldn't have won anything without the Roman Army, and the men who filled its ranks. While Trajan was getting all the glory, what was life like for the ordinary Roman soldier?Dr Elizabeth M. Greene, Associate Professor of Classics at Western Ontario University, drills Matt Lewis in the essentials of ancient military life, including the surprising role of women in the Roman Army.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit.

Filmische Highlights Unsere Episode beginnt mit einer ausführlichen Besprechung von „Beule – Zerlegt die Welt“, einer deutschen Independent-Komödie, die für ihren scharfsinnigen Humor gefeiert wird. Weiter geht's mit „Night Always Comes“, einem rauen Thriller über wirtschaftliche Härten, und „The Prosecutor“, einem fesselnden Gerichtsdrama. „Sketch“ besticht durch seine unkonventionelle Erzählweise, während „The Franchise“ einen satirischen Blick auf die chaotische Welt der Superheldenfilm-Produktion wirft.

Beule – Zerlegt die Welt (Regisseur: Janek Rieke) Diese deutsche Independent-Komödie begleitet Olli (Janek Rieke) und Anja (Julia Hartmann), die in Norddeutschland eine marode Bootsbauer-Werkstatt betreiben. Ihre stabile Beziehung gerät ins Wanken, als Anja ein Kind möchte und Ollis impulsive Art – daher sein Spitzname „Beule“ – für Chaos sorgt. Anjas Schwangerschaft bringt Stimmungsschwankungen, und Ollis Begegnung mit der Kassiererin Mia (Nilam Farooq) führt zu weiteren Turbulenzen vor der Geburt. Der Film wird für seinen scharfen Humor und seine hohe Gag-Dichte gelobt und erhielt von FILMSTARTS 4,5/5 Sterne.

In the new game Anno 117: Pax Romana, the Emperor has appointed you as governor, tasked with developing new provinces in the Empire.It's tempting to think of the Roman Empire as, well, Roman. But by its very nature the Empire consisted of people from a diverse range of cultures, with their own languages, traditions and architecture. How did the Romans keep this hodge-podge of territories together? And how much of what we think of as “Roman” is really borrowed from other ancient peoples?To help me grapple with the vastness of the Roman Empire, Matt Lewis is joined by Professor Benedict Lowe.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit.

As the Roman Republic slid into civil war and re-emerged as an empire in the late first century BC, Marcus Agrippa was a key figure in this radical transformation. The best friend and right-hand man of Augustus, first Roman emperor, he was both a witness to and active participant in the climactic battles and sweeping reforms that birthed the Pax Romana.A story from Roman history (63 - 12 BC), featuring: Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, Gaius Octavius / Octavian / the emperor Augustus, Julius Caesar, Sextus Pompey, Mark Antony, Cleopatra---CREDITS: Music by Scott BuckleyThumbnail Images: Bust of Agrippa (c. 25 BC)Augustus of Prima Porta (1st century AD)Panel from Trajan's Column featuring Roman soldiers (113 AD)WDS Logo Image: Kylix with Apollo playing the lyre and pouring a libation (c. 470 BC, Delphi Archeological Museum)
In the new game Anno 117: Pax Romana, the Emperor has appointed you as governor, tasked with developing new provinces in the Empire. The game is set in a big year for Rome: it marked the moment the Roman Empire expanded the furthest in all its history, and saw the death of Trajan, who is counted amongst the Five Good Emperors. But why was Trajan so popular? You've probably heard of Trajan's Column, which celebrates his military might. But there are many building projects bearing his name all across Europe and the Middle East. Was Trajan just a construction addict, or did his provincial projects serve a practical purpose?Prof. Maggie Popkin joins Matt Lewis to examine the blueprints of Trajan's grand schemes.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit.

In the new game Anno 117: Pax Romana, the Emperor has appointed you as governor, tasked with developing provinces in the Roman-based Latium region and Celtic-inspired Albion. The game is set in a big year for Rome: it marked the moment the Roman Empire expanded the furthest in all its history, and saw the death of Trajan, who is counted amongst the Five Good Emperors. As the video game's title indicates, this era was known as the “Pax Romana”: the “Roman Peace”. But what does that mean? Was this really a peaceful period in history? Or have we misunderstood its meaning for centuries? Dr Hannah Cornwell helps Matt Lewis with this classic puzzle.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit.

In the Bible? Praise is nearly always political. Certainly in the book of Revelation where crying out “Salvation belongs to our God” is a direct affront to the Emporer of Rome who claims salvation comes soley through him and his “Pax Romana”. And a post script to our series on Revelation and Resistance: Thanks be to God for artists like John of Patmos (and countless others across time and space!) who buoy communities seeking to be faithful to the Way of Jesus in the midst of and in direct resistance to the empire.Sermon begins at minute marker 3:37ResourcesBibleWorm podcast: Episode 650 - Revelation and Resistance - Praising God, Amy Robertson and Robert Williamson, JrChutzpadik definition, OED: “colloquial.

BEST OF TST: Many things come in threes, from the concept of body-mind-spirit to birth-life-death, and thus the various trinities found around the world from the dominant Christian conception to the Indian Trimurti. There is a universality to this truth, which can be found in everything from mass shootings to plane crashes. The spiritual side of these things is the human side, too, because when horrible things happen we see ourselves and loved ones in the dead; we pray, donate, hold candles, and think about life and death. The long-standing conspiratorial element to this fact has also just been reinforced by former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam, who was on Fox News over the weekend to say that the recent plane-helicopter crashes “will often happen in threes or more,” and so we should expect to possibly see another one in the coming weeks. This belief that things happen in threes is rooted in psychological patterns, pop culture, and cultural superstitions, where people perceive a connection between events due to our tendency to recognize these patterns. This idea is reinforced by the significance of the number three in various aspects of life, such as religion and folklore, which adds to its mystery. Despite plane crashes becoming less common, the more attention we place on them the more even minor incidents, like a small plane in Palo Alto running off the runway over the weekend, become proof of the triplicity mystique. If another larger incident occurs, the Palo Alto story may be forgotten. The pattern in societal and psychological terms comes in threes before the cycle restarts: shock, curiosity, and digging for answers that never come (outside personal bias) leads to disinterest from short attention spans so that we forget, or think we have all the answers, and so move on to the next shocking episode be it a storm, assassination, shooting, or plane crash. When analyzing these types of stories, context matters too, along with numbers and names which become like reading the green code of the Matrix. This was certainly the case with #286 and Luigi Mangione. The American Airlines flight 5342, which took off from Kansas's Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport for DC's Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport was carrying 64 people, while the UH-60M Black Hawk helicopter, from the 12th Air Battalion, that slammed into its side was carrying 3 - (67 overall = 13). ATC attempted to contact the helicopter prior to collision, but after a short response and silence, “13 seconds later” disaster struck. The runway cleared for landing was 33, which was shut down after. The plane type was a CRJ-700.The Learjet 55 that crashed in Philadelphia was carrying 6 crew and a child, for a total of 7 deaths, although other outlets have reported the child's mother died in the crash too. 19 others were injured. Others reported seven died in total, including a person on the ground. The FAA initially reported two people onboard, but corrected the report. The little girl had received medical care at a Shriners Hospital for Children 12 miles from the airport. The plane was headed to Tijuana, after a layover in Missouri at the Springfield-Branson National Airport. It seems slightly more than coincidence that the two major aviation incidents this past week have a connection to Super Bowl 59 next week. The Philadelphia Eagles will play the Kansas City Chiefs, who are actually located in Kansas City Missouri, a city split between two states. Some of the skaters onboard the AA flight were from Missoula, Montana. One of the major game storylines of the big game is that Patrick Mahomes has passed Joe Montana for second most playoff wins behind Tom Brady at 35 with his 7 Super Bowls. As already discussed on a previous show: “If we can pull a mythological narrative together… it could be between the Secret Chiefs, i.e., Deep State, and the symbolic bird of America, i.e., the eagle. The big game is being played at Caesars super dome, named after the entertainment casino company that uses a golden caesar for their logo. As this relates to politics we find Trump pushing the golden age of America narrative just weeks before the game, and we find the orange-yellow man fulfilling the promise of restoring order and even expanding America's territories, pricelessly what the first Augustus promised Rome. And funny enough, this Roman period was called Pax Romana, the golden age.” It is also odd that around Super Bowl time these types of aviation incidents, and some would argue sacrifices, are common in recent years. In January 2024, a Boeing 737-9 MAX made an emergency landing after the door plug blew out mid-flight, causing a cascade of criticism and public awareness. Just after the game there was a massacre at the winning celebration. As reported on a previous show: “NBC News reported at 9:44am Thursday 15th, 2024, 23 were injured and 2 were taken into custody = 25. At 10:17am Yahoo reported 22 injured and 3 taken into custody = 25. The numbers 25-22 was the final score of the game. The 3 arrested were out of a group of 10 questioned = 13, and 10-3 was the Halftime score of the Super Bowl.”During the week of the big game in 2023 a series of UFOs were tracked, shot down, and reported on in a national hysteria. Going back to 2020, January 26, the Sikorsky S-76B helicopter carrying Kobe Bryant and his 13-year old daughter crashed, killing 9 in total. It's odd enough Kobe was previously in a commercial for Nike where there was a helicopter crash via a bomb, or that Legends of Chamberlain Heights seemingly predicted the same incident just a few years before, but consider the following: the Sikorsky S-76B (SB 7+6=13) that killed Kobe was also meant to transport VIPs like himself, in likeness to the Black Hawk in Washington which was designed to carry VIPs. Both incidents occurred just prior to the Super Bowl. Sikorsky is also the same company that has MATRIX(tm) autonomy systems for Black Hawk helicopters, something DARPA was planning to test in 2025. In other words, remote controlled systems, which, coupled with the lack of response from the helicopter to ATC, formulates a conspiracy that either the technology failed or it has been used to create an incident and sacrifice the pilots in the process; the helicopter was officially on a “proficiency training flight.” Considering the recent drone hysteria, too, it is likely these objects were authorized by the FAA as an experiment to test AI-autonomy and situational awareness as part of a project called Convergence. On the other hand, viral conspiracy suggests there was no plane in Philadelphia because there was limited to no debris, essentially meaning it was a missile instead. The plane, however, was tipped at 45 degrees traveling at over 460mph and depending at 5-10 thousand feet per 60 seconds. For a small plane, with explosive medical equipment, it makes sense the entire thing was incinerated, or that the limited debris was exploded outward, not inward, far away from the crater. “I think the most important bit of evidence that we've seen so far is the doorbell video showing the aircraft descending at an incredible angle,” Arthur Wolk, an aviation expert, told NBC10. “Almost 45 degrees, which means that the airplane was out of control. No pilot would voluntarily descend any airplane at that angle. That probably resulted in the airplane striking the ground at over 400 knots and probably 5 or even 10,000 feet a minute going down that fast. So, something overtook this flight crew.”*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Located in Macedonia, this city was a thriving cultural center in the Roman Empire. It was full of competing loyalties:Civic Assemblies that promoted public allegiance to Roman ruleJewish communities rooted in Old Testament traditionPagan mystery cults that worshiped local gods like Cabirus and DionysusImperial cults that demanded loyalty to Caesar, who was honored as “Lord” and “Savior”This cultural mixture made Thessalonica a spiritual and political battleground. It was in this context that Paul boldly preached a new message—one that didn't fit into any existing category.Caesar and the Counterfeit GospelTo understand the revolutionary nature of Paul's gospel, we need to grasp how the Roman Empire presented its rulers.Julius Caesar (100–44 BC) was a military genius and political reformer. After his assassination, the Roman Senate declared him divine—Divus Julius.His adopted son, Caesar Augustus, used that claim to establish himself as the “Son of God.” He was also called “Savior” and “Lord”, and he was praised for bringing peace to the empire—the Pax Romana.In 9 BC, an inscription from Priene declared Augustus's birthday “the beginning of the good news (euangelion)” for the world.This was the Roman Empire's version of the gospel: salvation through the emperor, peace through power, and a kingdom built by human might. It was political propaganda wrapped in divine language.Paul's Radical Message: The True GospelIn direct contrast, Paul brought a different kind of good news to Thessalonica.“For when we brought you the Good News, it was not only with words but also with power, for the Holy Spirit gave you full assurance that what we said was true…”— 1 Thessalonians 1:5 (NLT)This message centered on Jesus—not Caesar—as the true Son of God, the real Savior, and the eternal King. Paul wasn't just preaching theology; he was making a political and spiritual declaration. His message was:Not about the birth of Augustus, but the death and resurrection of Jesus (Acts...

Marcus Aurelius (121–180 CE), a Roman emperor and prominent Stoic philosopher, ruled from 161 to 180 CE. As the last of the Five Good Emperors, his reign marked the end of the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace in the Roman Empire. Known for his military campaigns against Parthians and Germanic tribes, he also endured the devastating Antonine Plague. His philosophical reflections, compiled in Meditations, offer insight into Stoic ethics and personal leadership. Marcus was succeeded by his son Commodus, whose rule marked a decline in Rome's stability. His legacy endures in both historical and philosophical contexts.

La Pax Romana, ou « paix romaine », désigne une longue période de stabilité relative, de prospérité économique et de paix intérieure que connut l'Empire romain entre 27 av. J.-C. et environ 180 apr. J.-C. Elle débute avec l'avènement d'Auguste, premier empereur romain, et s'achève généralement avec la mort de Marc Aurèle. Pendant près de deux siècles, l'Empire romain parvient à maintenir l'ordre sur un immense territoire s'étendant de la Bretagne aux rives de l'Euphrate, et du Rhin au Sahara.La Pax Romana ne signifie pas l'absence totale de conflits : Rome continue de faire la guerre à ses frontières, notamment contre les Parthes, les Germains ou les tribus berbères. Mais à l'intérieur de l'Empire, les soulèvements majeurs sont rares, et les guerres civiles — qui avaient ensanglanté la République romaine au Ier siècle av. J.-C. — prennent fin. L'autorité impériale centralisée, le monopole de la violence légitime et la professionnalisation de l'armée contribuent largement à ce climat de stabilité.Sur le plan économique, la Pax Romana favorise un essor remarquable. Le commerce se développe, facilité par un vaste réseau routier de plus de 80 000 kilomètres, une marine puissante assurant la sécurité maritime, et une monnaie relativement stable. Les produits circulent entre les provinces : vin d'Italie, huile d'Espagne, blé d'Égypte, épices d'Orient, esclaves des Balkans… Les grandes villes, à commencer par Rome, en tirent une prospérité visible dans l'urbanisme, les monuments et la vie culturelle.L'administration impériale joue aussi un rôle essentiel. Auguste réforme le gouvernement, crée un corps de fonctionnaires fidèles et met en place un système judiciaire plus structuré. Les populations provinciales, souvent respectueuses de la domination romaine en échange de paix et d'infrastructures, commencent à s'intégrer à la culture romaine, un processus appelé romanisation. Les élites locales adoptent la langue latine, les institutions romaines, et obtiennent progressivement la citoyenneté — jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit étendue à tous les hommes libres de l'Empire par l'édit de Caracalla en 212.Enfin, cette paix favorise l'essor intellectuel et artistique : littérature, philosophie stoïcienne, architecture, droit… La culture romaine rayonne, influencée aussi par l'héritage grec.La Pax Romana reste une période idéalisée dans l'histoire occidentale. Elle représente un moment unique où un empire, par la force autant que par l'intégration, réussit à pacifier un vaste espace multiculturel. Si elle prend fin avec les premières grandes crises du IIIe siècle, son souvenir inspire encore les empires ultérieurs cherchant à concilier puissance et stabilité. Hébergé par Acast.

In this episode of History 102, 'WhatIfAltHist' creator Rudyard Lynch and co-host Austin Padgett discuss the Pax Romana—a 200-year period of Mediterranean peace from Emperor Augustus to Marcus Aurelius. They explore Rome's governance evolution, imperial degeneracy, cultural transitions, technological stagnation, and Christianity's rise. The conversation examines Rome's remarkable longevity while drawing parallels to modern empires and cyclical historical patterns. --

Mercury has joined six other planets in the sky to form the return of the gods alignment. These 7 gods, famously named after Roman deities, indicate a renewal at the start of a golden age. Mercury, as messenger, has brought news of the Abraxas-Kekian golden age below to that which is above. From now until 2032 there is a window of seven years promising us peace and prosperity that will be intercepted in 2029 by the asteroid Apophis (Apep) with a destination of 99942. It's unlikely the object will physically impact earth but its presence alone, like comets that signify the end of ages, empires, and health, is enough to consider its implications. It is Apep who attempts to consume the solar barge of RA, which is the daily golden age provided to man. The golden sun and wheat nourish our bodies and minds, but when it is consumed we starve. The Pax Romana, or Golden Age of Octavian, followed the fall of the Roman Republic under Julius Caesar, and the beginning of empire. The period of peace and gold promised will exist temporally until judgement is issued from above. The rapture of ecstasy for Abraxas will be met with tribulation and chaos. Other portents are also powerful omens of what is brewing: March 14, which marks the death of Julius by assassination, is the evaluation day of the new US White House, the deadline for government shutdown, and the day of a lunar eclipse and blood moon. Coupled with these facts are m'ore doomsday fish', suggesting a massive earthquake is soon to strike, March being the month of solar storms, and March 20th, Ostara, being the spring equinox. All of this indicates birth, rebirth, or resurrection, harvest, reflection, and purification. The bloody veil of the moon is the veil of Isis, and when removed symbolizes the naked Diana. The birth of something is coming, good or bad, of empire and tyrant, or age of peace. This is the season of assassination, changing authority, backstabbing, and the return of sun and wheat. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
Lists of important Roman historians would certainly include cerebral Polybius (who, to be fair, was also Greek); the friend of Augustus, Titus Livius; the austere Tacitus; and the gossipy Suetonius,. To one extent or another, all of them were participant observers–not simply historians, but actors in the drama of Roman life and politics. Not usually included on this list of great Roman participant-historians is Cassius Dio. Like Polybius, he was Greek. But since he was born somewhere between 155 and 165 AD, and died in the 230s, the Mediterranean world had changed quite a bit since Polybius' time, three centuries before. For Cassius Dio was a Roman senator, and he served and wrote during a time of unprecedented tumult within the Roman Empire. He is often the only source for a variety of events, even ones which occurred centuries before his own lifetime. But was he simply a Tacitus wannabe? Or an important and influential historian in his own right? With me to talk about Cassius Dio is Colin Elliot, Professor of History at Indiana University. He hosts his own podcast, Pax Romana, where you can hear many verbal footnotes to Cassius Dio, which helped inspire this discussion. Colin's last appearance on Historically Thinking was in Episode 351, when we talked about this book Pox Romana: The Plague That Shook the Roman World.
Many things come in threes, from the concept of body-mind-spirit to birth-life-death, and thus the various trinities found around the world from the dominant Christian conception to the Indian Trimurti. There is a universality to this truth, which can be found in everything from mass shootings to plane crashes. The spiritual side of these things is the human side, too, because when horrible things happen we see ourselves and loved ones in the dead; we pray, donate, hold candles, and think about life and death. The long-standing conspiratorial element to this fact has also just been reinforced by former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam, who was on Fox News over the weekend to say that the recent plane-helicopter crashes “will often happen in threes or more,” and so we should expect to possibly see another one in the coming weeks. This belief that things happen in threes is rooted in psychological patterns, pop culture, and cultural superstitions, where people perceive a connection between events due to our tendency to recognize these patterns. This idea is reinforced by the significance of the number three in various aspects of life, such as religion and folklore, which adds to its mystery. Despite plane crashes becoming less common, the more attention we place on them the more even minor incidents, like a small plane in Palo Alto running off the runway over the weekend, become proof of the triplicity mystique. If another larger incident occurs, the Palo Alto story may be forgotten. The pattern in societal and psychological terms comes in threes before the cycle restarts: shock, curiosity, and digging for answers that never come (outside personal bias) leads to disinterest from short attention spans so that we forget, or think we have all the answers, and so move on to the next shocking episode be it a storm, assassination, shooting, or plane crash. When analyzing these types of stories, context matters too, along with numbers and names which become like reading the green code of the Matrix. This was certainly the case with #286 and Luigi Mangione. The American Airlines flight 5342, which took off from Kansas's Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport for DC's Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport was carrying 64 people, while the UH-60M Black Hawk helicopter, from the 12th Air Battalion, that slammed into its side was carrying 3 - (67 overall = 13). ATC attempted to contact the helicopter prior to collision, but after a short response and silence, “13 seconds later” disaster struck. The runway cleared for landing was 33, which was shut down after. The plane type was a CRJ-700.The Learjet 55 that crashed in Philadelphia was carrying 6 crew and a child, for a total of 7 deaths, although other outlets have reported the child's mother died in the crash too. 19 others were injured. Others reported seven died in total, including a person on the ground. The FAA initially reported two people onboard, but corrected the report. The little girl had received medical care at a Shriners Hospital for Children 12 miles from the airport. The plane was headed to Tijuana, after a layover in Missouri at the Springfield-Branson National Airport. It seems slightly more than coincidence that the two major aviation incidents this past week have a connection to Super Bowl 59 next week. The Philadelphia Eagles will play the Kansas City Chiefs, who are actually located in Kansas City Missouri, a city split between two states. Some of the skaters onboard the AA flight were from Missoula, Montana. One of the major game storylines of the big game is that Patrick Mahomes has passed Joe Montana for second most playoff wins behind Tom Brady at 35 with his 7 Super Bowls. As already discussed on a previous show: “If we can pull a mythological narrative together… it could be between the Secret Chiefs, i.e., Deep State, and the symbolic bird of America, i.e., the eagle. The big game is being played at Caesars super dome, named after the entertainment casino company that uses a golden caesar for their logo. As this relates to politics we find Trump pushing the golden age of America narrative just weeks before the game, and we find the orange-yellow man fulfilling the promise of restoring order and even expanding America's territories, pricelessly what the first Augustus promised Rome. And funny enough, this Roman period was called Pax Romana, the golden age.” It is also odd that around Super Bowl time these types of aviation incidents, and some would argue sacrifices, are common in recent years. In January 2024, a Boeing 737-9 MAX made an emergency landing after the door plug blew out mid-flight, causing a cascade of criticism and public awareness. Just after the game there was a massacre at the winning celebration. As reported on a previous show: “NBC News reported at 9:44am Thursday 15th, 2024, 23 were injured and 2 were taken into custody = 25. At 10:17am Yahoo reported 22 injured and 3 taken into custody = 25. The numbers 25-22 was the final score of the game. The 3 arrested were out of a group of 10 questioned = 13, and 10-3 was the Halftime score of the Super Bowl.”During the week of the big game in 2023 a series of UFOs were tracked, shot down, and reported on in a national hysteria. Going back to 2020, January 26, the Sikorsky S-76B helicopter carrying Kobe Bryant and his 13-year old daughter crashed, killing 9 in total. It's odd enough Kobe was previously in a commercial for Nike where there was a helicopter crash via a bomb, or that Legends of Chamberlain Heights seemingly predicted the same incident just a few years before, but consider the following: the Sikorsky S-76B (SB 7+6=13) that killed Kobe was also meant to transport VIPs like himself, in likeness to the Black Hawk in Washington which was designed to carry VIPs. Both incidents occurred just prior to the Super Bowl. Sikorsky is also the same company that has MATRIX(tm) autonomy systems for Black Hawk helicopters, something DARPA was planning to test in 2025. In other words, remote controlled systems, which, coupled with the lack of response from the helicopter to ATC, formulates a conspiracy that either the technology failed or it has been used to create an incident and sacrifice the pilots in the process; the helicopter was officially on a “proficiency training flight.” Considering the recent drone hysteria, too, it is likely these objects were authorized by the FAA as an experiment to test AI-autonomy and situational awareness as part of a project called Convergence. On the other hand, viral conspiracy suggests there was no plane in Philadelphia because there was limited to no debris, essentially meaning it was a missile instead. The plane, however, was tipped at 45 degrees traveling at over 460mph and depending at 5-10 thousand feet per 60 seconds. For a small plane, with explosive medical equipment, it makes sense the entire thing was incinerated, or that the limited debris was exploded outward, not inward, far away from the crater. “I think the most important bit of evidence that we've seen so far is the doorbell video showing the aircraft descending at an incredible angle,” Arthur Wolk, an aviation expert, told NBC10. “Almost 45 degrees, which means that the airplane was out of control. No pilot would voluntarily descend any airplane at that angle. That probably resulted in the airplane striking the ground at over 400 knots and probably 5 or even 10,000 feet a minute going down that fast. So, something overtook this flight crew.”-FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
