"Who is so thoughtless and lazy that he does not want to know in what way and with what kind of government the Romans in less than 53 years conquered the entire inhabited world and brought it under their rule--an achievement previously unheard of?"

What was that achievement? Clearly it was more than creating a huge empire.
