The Roman Empire was one of the longest lived, if not the longest, empire in human history. We know much of its history from the chronicles written at the time and handed down through the ages to the present day. Its record of domination of the regions of Europe, North Africa, and the Near East is extraordinary.



Many empires have come and gone, and while almost all have been forgotten except by historians, yet even today, centuries after its final demise, most people are familiar with this long-gone imperium.


The power of the Empire was ultimately built upon the soldiers who fought for it, the Centurions of the Roman Empire. They fought many battles over the centuries, vanquishing numerous foes and rarely suffering defeat. Ultimately they are the reason the Roman Empire was so remarkably durable. Their military accomplishments are unparalled by any fighting force, and must be acknowledged. This video documentary is a tribute to these ancient heroes.


In this historical recreation, world-renowned chanteuse The Fabulous Jasmine Vegas brings to life a typical Roman centurion, as they probably were millennia ago in Rome's heyday. It took a talent as phenomenal as Jasmine to capture what a centurion was actually like, and make one real for a modern audience. This educational video is suitable for viewers of all ages.
