The Collapse of Legitimacy and Rome's 3rd Century Crisis

In his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Edward Gibbon famously said: “If a man were called to fix the period in the history of the world, during which the condition of the human race was most happy and prosperous, he would, without hesitation, name that which elapsed from the death of Domitian to the accession of Commodus.” rosy picture of the 2nd century has been called into question by historians but whether you believe in the Pax Romana or not, it is clear that this period of relative peace and security was not the result of any real change to human nature or the laws of history - rather Rome had purchased its safety and prosperity through blood and by neglecting key problems in its empire. In 193, that bill was finally coming due. This history documentary looks at the roots of the chaos and disorder known today as the Crisis of the Third Century and explains how the causes of this period of destabilization can be traced back to decisions made under the "good" emperors of the 2nd century and even to before the rise of the Roman Empire itself.
