| Summary | "The History of Rome, Book IV" by Theodor Mommsen is a historical account penned in the late 19th century. This work delves into the Revolution period of Rome, focusing on the critical transformations and socio-political upheavals during the era of the Gracchi brothers and the ensuing struggles with both internal reforms and external conflict. At the start of the text, Mommsen introduces the reader to the conditions faced by the subject countries under Roman dominance, notably emphasizing the complexities of governance and resistance in regions such as Spain. Through detailed accounts of various conflicts and interactions with local tribes, such as the Lusitanians and Celtiberians, he begins to set the stage for a broader analysis of how these turbulence-filled years led to significant changes within the Roman Republic itself. The opening portion highlights the contrasting cultural landscapes of the annexed provinces and the forces resisting Roman authority, revealing insights about the intricacies of power dynamics during this tumultuous time.
