What can ancient Rome teach us about American democracy?

The Roman Republic fell for a lot of reasons: The state became too big and chaotic; the influence of money and private interests corrupted public institutions; and social and economic inequalities became so large that citizens lost faith in the system altogether and gradually fell into the arms of tyrants and demagogues. It sounds a lot like the problems America is facing today.

This week's guest, historian Edward Watts, tells us what we can learn about America's future by studying Rome's past.

Host: Sean Illing, (@SeanIlling), host, The Gray Area

Guest: Edward Watts, author, Mortal Republic: How Rome Fell into Tyranny and The Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome.
