Rome and China were some of the oldest and most well-known countries in the ancient world. The Han dynasty was a long-lasting dynasty in China's history, and the Roman Empire had a long and strong rule. Like the rules of these empires, the falls of these empires were very impressive.

Ancient Rome is known for some of the most powerful leaders, rulers, and kings to ever walk the earth.
