Our legions stand guard on the boundaries of civilization, from the foggy coasts of northern seas to the ancient rivers of ], the finest fighting machines in history. The people of thirty lands send us tribute - their gold and silk, ivory and ], and their proudest sons to be our slaves. We have reached the point where there are more slaves in Rome than citizens.

A Clash of Authority and Defiance
Diana Sire, Marcellus is my chosen husband. I wish to go with him.
Caligula Stand back! You're not on trial! There's no evidence against you!
Diana Then if it please you, sire, I'll provide evidence. I have no wish to live another hour in an empire ruled by you! You dare to call yourself a Caesar? Once the Caesars of Rome were noble, but in you, noble blood has turned to poison. You corrupt Rome with your spite and malice.
Caligula Stop! Stop it!
Diana That you should be Caesar! Vicious, treacherous, drunk with power, an evil, insane monster posing as emperor!
Caligula STOP IT!
Diana As for me, I have found another king. I want to go with my husband into his kingdom.
Caligula Then, by the gods, you shall! GO, BOTH OF YOU, INTO YOUR KINGDOM!
