The Pax Romana.

The term "Pax Romana", which literally means "Roman peace," refers to the time period from 27 B.C.E. to 180 C.E. in the Roman Empire. The Pax Romana began when Octavian became the leader of the Roman Empire. The main importance of his peace was that all of the land surrounding the Mediterranean was at not at war because everyone was under Roman Law but also a Roman tribute and sometimes Roman corruption and abuse.

There were drawbacks.

In order to get to that point, Julius Caesar built a military empire, amassed an extreme fortune, and political influence while gaining popular support by creating the vision of a dangerous enemy to the north and the conspiring to annihilate over a million celts and enslaving a number beyond count.

Navigating around the responsibilities that are required in a republic there was a degeneration of the character and values of the people. These systems of free bread obtained through covetous schemes weakened the people.
