The Romans ruled the known world and had complete safety for Roman Citizens, all they did was rape, plunder, destroy, run salt into the farmland of any nation that even HARMED a Roman. Isnt there some kind of lesson there we are overlooking?

And then the Romans became soft, and eventually were overrun by the barbarians.

A lesson here?
