Economic problems, government corruption, crime and private armies, and the rise of Julius Caesar as emperor all led to its eventual fall in 27 BCE. Rome’s continued expansion resulted in money and revenue for the Republic.

What is the right of imperium?

Why did the Roman Empire end?

Invasions by Barbarian tribes The most straightforward theory for Western Rome’s collapse pins the fall on a string of military losses sustained against outside forces.

How powerful is the Imperium of Man in Warhammer 40k?

Regarding space combat, the empire has the advantage in FTL travel, but otherwise it’s still outclassed if I recall correctly. The Imperium is the victor. Now, this doesn’t mean the Empire isn’t powerful, but 40k outclasses basically every other sci-fi universe by far.

What is the difference between Imperium and Empire?

Both side can use whatever they can in an all out war, Empire can use the stuff from the EU, Imperium can use stuff from novels as well. I would like to point out that Imperial ships are far faster in realspace than GE ships are, with combat velocities approaching .75c. Psykers are also an extremely strong force and are far more common than Jedi.

Is the GE better than the Imperium of Man?

The GE is larger than the Imperium though, it has more manpower and greater production capacity, this along with a vastly superior FTL method would probably give them an edge over individually superior foes.

Is the Imperium going to have an advantage in uncharted space?

The Imperium is going to have a huge advantage due to the fact that warp travel is actually far more useful in uncharted space. They’ll be on the offensive first, and that will likely be all she wrote as the GE’s only chance is to be on the offensive fast and hard before the war machine of the Imperium grinds them to dust.
