The Pax Romana.
The term "Pax Romana", which literally means "Roman peace," refers to the time period from 27 B.C.E. to 180 C.E. in the Roman Empire.
The Pax Romana began when Octavian became the leader of the Roman Empire. The main importance of his peace was that all of the land surrounding the Mediterranean was not at war because everyone was under Roman Law but also a Roman tribute and sometimes Roman corruption and abuse.
There were drawbacks to this imposed peace.
In order to get to that point of power centered in the hands of the Caesars. Julius Caesar built a military empire, amassed an extreme fortune, and political influence while gaining popular support by creating the vision of a dangerous enemy to the north and the conspiring to annihilate their neighbors. Over a million celts were attacked, robbed, or enslaved. The Romam people turned a blind eye to his war crimes and abuse because showered with dainties and benefits through their public temples.
Navigating around the responsibilities that are required in a republic there was a degeneration of the character and values of the masses. These systems of free bread obtained through covetous schemes weakened the people.
