Hi,<br>
<br>
No I agree that Roman conquest was probablythe best thing for the perpetuation of Greek culture but had those battles gone differently it <em>may</em> have had interesting ramifications for Greek History. Also if those battles had been total victories for the Greeks (especially for Pyrrhus) then there may have been little chance for Roman recovery ... we will never know!<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
