The 1 season of Rome was broadcast on HBO from dimanche 28 août 2005 to dimanche 20 novembre 2005. It consists of 12 episodes, the first one is called "The Stolen Eagle" and the last one "Kalends of February".
Four hundred years after the founding of the Republic, Rome is the wealthiest city in the world. The Republic was founded on principals of shared power, never allowing one man to seize absolute control. But now, those foundations are crumbling...and two soldiers unwittingly become entwined in the historical events of ancient Rome. A drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, husbands and wives, Rome chronicles a turbulent era that saw the death of a republic and the birth of an empire.
