Summary

How did Rome build an empire without destroying everything in its path? This episode unpacks the early Roman Republic’s secret weapon: a flexible system of alliances, patronage, and partial citizenship that let it dominate Italy before ever touching Carthage. We break down Rome’s bizarre founding myths, its mafia-like foreign policy, and why even conquered enemies wanted in. Did the Republic’s real power lie in its soft control, not its swords?
