Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither
was Londinium but by the end of the first century
the Roman City had an amphitheatre, a forum and basilica, a bridge across the Thames and much more.
Emperor Claudius sent a small army in the middle of the first century to conquer the barbarian island and the painted warriors. He managed to do what
the most famous Roman, Julius Caesar, couldn't do!
Boudica raised an army to kick out the Romans but they stayed for almost four hundred years
