Historical note: Rome's founding story is a legend. Nero's responsibility for the fire is unproven. The removal of Romulus Augustulus in 476 concerns imperial rule in the West; the Eastern Roman world continued. Visuals are artistic historical reconstructions, not documentary footage of the events.
