From the Paper:

"Ancient Roman history is the greatest and the most interesting period of the Ancient world history that influenced European civilization. Germans, Anglo-Saxons, Slavs based their cultures on great Roman achievements in any sphere of social life. Roman history is still an example of highly developed, educated and strong society, mighty and powerful state. Romans were leaders in all spheres of human life and they gained respect for many centuries in their present and future. For centuries (and even now) Roman civilization has been an example, a great aim that many leaders wanted to gain because they saw Roman social and state structure worth creating in their countries. And I have to admit many of them had succeeded!"
