	Barbarian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The word "barbarian" generally refers to an uncivilized, uncultured person, either in a general reference to a member of a nation or ethnos perceived as having an inferior level of civilization, or in an individual reference to a brutal, cruel, insensitive person whose behavior is unacceptable in a civilized society.
		The barbarian is technically a social parasite on civilization, who depends on settlements as a source of slaves, surpluses and portable luxuries: booty, loot and plunder.
		The culture of the nomad is not to be confused with the barbarian.

	Rome: Total War Barbarian Invasion for PC Review - PC Rome: Total War Barbarian Invasion Review
		Barbarian Invasion adds a lot of new features and improvements to Rome: Total War, and the result is a much more challenging and satisfying strategy game.
		Barbarian Invasion is a much more challenging game, partly because every faction starts out at some kind of disadvantage, and partly due to the improvements in the artificial intelligence.
		Barbarian Invasion only ships with two historical battles, but the value of this expansion is in the overall improvements it makes to the core game, as well as the sheer challenge of the new single-player campaign.

	Edward Gibbon, "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" (1776-1788)
		The empire of Rome was firmly established by the singular and perfect coalition of its members.
		Should the victorious barbarians carry slavery and desolation as far as the Atlantic Ocean, ten thousand vessels would transport beyond their pursuit the remains of civilized society; and Europe would revive and flourish in the American world, which is already filled with her colonies and institutions.
		Their gradual advances in the science of war would always be accompanied, as we may learn from the example of Russia, with a proportionable improvement in the arts of peace and civil policy; and they themselves must deserve a place among the polished nations whom they subdue.

	UGO's Future of Gaming - Rome: Total War - Barbarian Invasion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Rome: Total War is considered by some people to be the single greatest PC strategy game ever made, with its combination of Civilization-style turn-based empire management and RTS battles that can satiate the most diehard Warcraft 3 player.
		While Rome: Total War offers scenarios and custom battles, the meat of the game is the campaign where you take command of your favorite faction and attempt to conquer the ancient world.
		Barbarian Invasion adds religion to the game, with each city having their own balance between Christianity and Pagan faiths.

	Ancient Rome
		The history of Ancient Rome lasted a full thousand years from its founding myths of Aeneas and Romulus and Remus all the way through its periods of greatness and infamy with men such as Caesar, Augustus and Nero.
		Like the Rome of today the traffic was unbearable, especially in the downtown Via Sacra (Sacred street, in the Forum) and the Soho area called the Suburra must have been quite something.
		Ancient Rome had become its own worst enemy and the invading barbarians minted coinage with the words "Invicta Roma" -Rome unconquered- as if they were there to save it from itself and bring back its ancient valour.

	Rome, Battle of Adrianople, Ammianus
		Then, having traversed the broken ground which divided the two armies, as the burning day was progressing toward noon, at last, after marching eight miles, our men came in sight of the wagons of the enemy, which had been reported by the scouts to be all arranged in a circle.
		The barbarians, rushing on with their enormous army, beat down our horses and men and gave us no open spaces where we could fall back to operate.
		Then you might see the barbarian, towering in his fierceness, hissing or shouting, fall with his legs pierced through, or his right hand cut off, sword and all, or his side transfixed, and still, in the last gasp of life, casting around his defiant glances.

		For centuries after Rome fell, barbarian Kings, whose claim to authority was based on force, grabbed at the glorious mantle of Rome to confer legitimacy upon themselves - so powerful did the idea of Rome remain in the popular imagination.
