RE: ENEMIES OF ROME 8.4 - ALARIC - Never Two Without Three

in #history7 years ago (edited)

The sacking of Rome in 410 was the first time in 800 years that a foreign army entered the "Eternal city". Nobody believed it was possible, I can't imagen the panic that swept Italy.
When the advisors of Honorius told him that Rome had "died", the Emperor replied:”“No, not Roma! I just fed him.” believing his pet rooster had died. :P
Can't wait for the last part. :)

haha exact about Honorius anecdote... I didn't include it in the article because it's about Alaric,but thanks for adding it :) Glad you liked it! Last part this weekend!
