'Empire' charts the destinies of five generations of the Pinarius family, from the reign of the first emperor, Augustus, to the glorious height of Rome's empire under Hadrian. Through them we observe the machinations of Tiberius, the madness of Caligula, the cruel escapades of Nero and the Golden Age of Trajan, and bear witness to the spectacular events of the time, including Nero's terrifying persecution of the Christians and the mind-blowing opening games at the Colosseum.
