Dr Adam Koontz answers a listener question about the fall of Rome and talks about why it's hard to compare the collapse of modern nations to ancient empires, how Byzantium saw itself as a continuation of Rome, the difference between history and tradition, having a building mentality instead of a looting mentality, and modern parallels to the current state of America.
