Committee Summary

The Fall of the Republic: Rome 63 BCE, places participants in the heart of Rome's political and social turmoil. Delegates assume the roles of key historical figures, such as Cicero, Julius Caesar, and Pompey, navigating alliances, betrayals, and efforts to reform the Republic or even destroy it. The committee addresses issues like political inequality, land reform, and the erosion of Republican institutions under the weight of political ambition. Ongoing debates will focus on balancing power between the Senate and emerging populist leaders, with crisis updates introducing unexpected challenges such as revolts and foreign wars. The committee will give delegates the ability to change history, allowing for the Fragile Republic to survive its most trying hour, or maybe a different face will rule as Rome’s first Emperor.
