The European Association of Antique Reenactment.”We have chosen the second century BC for quite a few reasons. First it is the period of Rome largest expansion when it started Rome was more less the Italian peninsula and at the end it controlled 75% of the Mediterranean basin. Second, this is a period completely overlooked by history books and most historians as a whole, and it deserves to be known at it is the turning point in Rome history that lead the basis to the future change of regime. Third, it is the birth of the Roman province in the South of France were our founding members originate.”
