Talk:State of Rome

A somewhat dubious treatment of the subject. Cynwolfe (talk) 17:45, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Use of the term in historical literature
State or Rome is a useful catch-all term historians use to refer to the Roman state continuity in its totality, or I should say for all of its phases collectively - i.e. Roman Kingdom, Roman Republic, Roman Empire and even Roman imperial remnants (1204-1475 CE) taken together. Essentially you can use the term to refer to the entire state continuity that existed from April 753 BCE to December 1475 CE (i.e. from the founding of the city of Rome to the fall of the Principality of Theodoro), continuity that lasted unbroken for almost 2228 years. The article should be expanded. 137.82.108.34 (talk) 21:25, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
