I have to write a stupid report about the beggining and ending of the Roman Empire, all on one full page. I cannot find an accurate website telling about when the Roman Empire Began, and Ended and how. Could someone give me a website?

Also the stupid report is for my father. Not a teacher.

Answer 1

Roman Empire, political system established by Rome that lasted for nearly five centuries. Historians usually date the beginning of the Roman Empire from 27 BC when the Roman Senate gave Gaius Octavius the name Augustus and he became the undisputed emperor after years of bitter civil war.
The fall of the empire wasn't a sudden, point to an exact date and it all came apart, kind of thing. It happened slowly, over a period of time. Thaats why its called the Decline and Fall.....The last good Emperor that the Romans had was Marcus Aurelius. After the death of Marcus Aurelius in 180 A.D., everything went downhill. A string of mostly bad emperors followed.

Answer 2

This story cannot be told on one page. Is there a more specific question you are supposed to answer in your 'stupid' report?
Unless your teacher is asking for websites as your sources you might want to consider using books. Encyclopedias are good places to start.

I hope you find something about the Roman Empire that is interesting to you. It will make writing reports a lot easier for you.
