Tribun Leonidas Falkenberg kehrt von seiner ergebnislosen Suche nach der verschwundenen Flotte des Sultans Suyin zurück. Wie es scheint, sind die Islamisten soweit ins Great Dark geflohen, dass das Imperium vor einer wirklichen Herausforderung steht. Inzwischen stehen die römischen Truppen vor Sidon und beginnen die Invasion zur Befreiung der Bevölkerung. Dazu setzt Rom erstmals eine neue Waffe ein, die zur zukünftigen Grundlage römischer Bodenkriegsführung werden soll. In Alesia bleibt der neue König Pascal-Cingeto I. nicht untätig. Gezielt nutzt er die neuerworbene Technik des Sultans und die Beute aus der zerfallenen Terranischen Hegemonie, um seine Flotte technisch auf Augenhöhe Roms zu bringen. Zusätzlich baut er auf die neue CyberMind-Technik und baut sie für Alesia zu einer Waffe aus. Diese Technik wird von CyberMind-Systems unter Caesar Falkenberg immer weiter verbreitet. Die enormen Gewinne ermöglichen eine immer größere und schnellere Durchdringung der Bevölkerung mit Neuralinterfaces. In den Vereinten Drachen lodert die Flamme des Bürgerkrieges auf und die Regionalmächte versuchen vom Zerfall der Nation zu profitieren.

All das führt zu einem immer lauter werdenden Ruf nach Frieden und einer Rückkehr zur Grand Charta. Deshalb

Their peace meant Roman victory and was brought about by strength and dominance rather than co-existence with neighbours. The Romans were aggressive and ruthless, and during the creation of their empire millions died or were enslaved. But the Pax Romana was real, not merely the boast of emperors, and some of the regions in the Empire have never again lived for so many generations free from major wars. So what exactly was the Pax Romana and what did it mean for the people who found themselves brought under Roman rule? Acclaimed historian Adrian Goldsworthy tells the story of the creation of the Empire, revealing how and why the Romans came to control so much of the world and asking whether the favourable image of the Roman peace is a true one. He chronicles the many rebellions by the conquered, and describes why these broke out and why most failed. At
