Synopsis
How did a governing body with zero legislative power, zero command authority, and zero means of enforcement run the largest state in the western world for four centuries?
The Roman Senate in 100 Facts takes you inside the curia, the temples, and the civil wars to examine the machinery of an empire built on custom (mos maiorum) and weight of reputation (auctoritas). From the math of a legionary's pay and Caesar's re-oriented Senate house to the day a Roman drew a circle in the sand around a king, this book traces how three hundred men held an empire together—and how loyalty shifted from the state to the general when armies needed land.
Drawing directly on internal witnesses like Cicero, Tacitus, and bronze-inscribed decrees, Cornelis van Houte strips away modern constitutional assumptions to show how a state without a written constitution actually worked, broke, and lingered for six hundred years under emperors, Goths, and popes before becoming a church.
Cornelis van Houte, doctor of laws.
