Drawing from the works of Virgil, Livy, Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Plutarch, Tacitus, Suetonius, Cassius Dio, and many others, each episode transforms the surviving accounts of antiquity into a modern cinematic narrative—remaining faithful to the sources while immersing listeners in the world the Romans believed they had inherited.

This trailer introduces the series, the journey ahead, and what to expect as we follow Rome across more than a thousand years of triumph, tragedy, ambition, and empire.

Every empire has an origin.

Before the Republic. Before Caesar. Before the legions conquered the known world, there was only a handful of survivors fleeing a burning city, a prophecy carried across the sea, and a destiny that would change history forever.

Season One of Imperium follows Rome's legendary beginnings—from the fall of Troy and the journey of Aeneas, through the rise of Alba Longa, the birth of Romulus and Remus, the founding of Rome, the reign of its kings, and the events that would ultimately give birth to the Roman Republic.

Drawing from the works of Virgil, Livy, Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Plutarch, and other ancient historians, these stories are retold as modern cinematic narratives while remaining faithful to the traditions preserved by Rome itself.

This is where the story begins.

The greatest city of the ancient world stands on the brink of destruction. As Troy burns beneath the weight of Greek deception, one man is called to carry its legacy beyond the ashes. Guided by the gods, Aeneas abandons the only home he has ever known and begins a journey that will shape the destiny of civilizations yet unborn.

Drawing from Virgil's Aeneid and the traditions preserved by later Roman historians, this opening chapter explores the legendary fall of Troy and the first steps toward the founding of Rome—not through the eyes of conquerors, but through those destined to survive.
