Fall of Civilizations: Roman Britain - The Work of Giants Crumbled

A vast ruined bath house, a fire-damaged poem and a world teetering on the brink of collapse.

In this episode, we look at the collapse of Roman Britain. Find out how a great civilization grew up almost overnight on the island of Britannia, how it endured the test of centuries against barbarian invasions and foolish rulers, and what happened after its final dramatic collapse.

Well we already have Food and Circuses.

We also have the elites, untouched by any troubles, in their gated communites carrying on as if nothing is happening while the world falls about around them.

#1  Barbarian invaders: yep, 20 million illiterates and millions more soon to come pouring across our southern border thanks to Plugs and Susan Rice

Foolish rulers: boy oh boy... Clinton, W, Soetoro, Plugs...

Oligarchy, impoverishment of the masses, crushing public debt : nuff said

New religion destroying / displacing the old truths: yep-- Wokery, Black Lies Murder, toxic s'premissy this'n'that, St Greta's Fire, tranny madness...

Yeah, we've seen this play out before. Our turn now
