As a side note, when we are on the subject of Ancient Rome, here are but a few things that went on in the modern society of the time :eek:
Claudius married his niece Agrippina :eek:
Agrippina had Claudius name her son Nero, by another marriage, as his successor over his own flesh and blood :eek:
Agrippina killed Claudius with a poisoned mushroom :eek:
Nero became Emperor - and then burned Rome for his own gain :eek:
Nero had his mother Agrippina killed after failing to kill her 5 times by "accidental death" :eek:
This goes on and on, but I think that is enough to get the point across !
And Rome was once the most civilized nation in the world :eek:
It is no wonder so many traders find it hard to accept that when it comes to trading, they are really of no significance, in the same way that the many citizens of Ancient Rome, were of no real significance !
