Hi, theres a question thats been buggin me about the late army
By 180AD by the time Marcus Aurelius had the war in Germania with the different barbarian tribes the roman army was a killing machine but slowly that machine became weak. At what point did this happen were the reforms made by Constantine what killed the efficiency of the army or what was it , was it the influence of the barbarians in society , what happened ? What made the once invincible roman army weak and beatable
