the downfall of an empire that persisted in one form or another from 2200 BC to 1200 AD was caused by the accumulation of resources by the elites of Republican Rome. I see.
The overarching theme historically, both by those for empire and hostile to empire, is human beings in large groupings tend to act in certain ways (local tribe first; semi-local next; fuck you I got mine). I haven't seen anything in modern accounts to make me think otherwise.

is that because it's immutable truth, because of a failing of modern accounts, or a failing of yourself? how would you know?

I can't give you Plato's light outside the cave, because I don't have the crowbar to open the box I'm in. All I can do is make decisions based on what I've witnessed, and what I've learned from what others have witnessed. I'm always open to new evidence.
