Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Library of Historic Characters and Famous Events, Vol. 9 of 10: Of All Nations and All Ages

Among the events of this reign are the Victories of Agricola in Britain, by which most Of that island was brought under Roman government. This period has been pronounced by Merivale the apogee of Rome's military renown. Under Vespasian's rule the empire enjoyed prosperity such as it had not known since the reign of Augustus. Prudent atten tion was given to replenishing the treasury, which had been exhausted by the prodigal and wasteful acts of Nero and Vitellius, and the revenues of the empire were settled on a stable basis. General tranquillity promoted the prosperity of the people.
