Il collasso dell'impero romano fu dovuto a diversi fattori: il crollo demografico, per far fronte al quale si inaugurò una persecuzione fiscale che distrusse l'economia, si cercò quindi di ovviare tramite una massiccia immigrazione trascurando peró di governarla. I legionari, tornati a casa dopo anni di leva andarono a ingrossare la plebe urbana, cui “panem et circenses” gratuiti non mancavano. Le virtù stoiche della pietas e della fidelitas alla res publica vennero meno, e il contagio, partì dalle élites. Nelle classi alte si diffuse l'edonismo, per cui i figli sono una palla al piede. Coi costumi ellenistici dilagarono contraccezione, concubinaggio e divorzio, tant'è che Augusto dovette emanare leggi contro il celibato. Nel II secolo dopo Cristo l'aborto divenne la misura estrema per nascondere relazioni illecite, solo i cristiani vi si opponevano, ma erano pochi e pure periodicamente decimati dalle persecuzioni. Gente da tassare e/o da mandare a difendere il limes ce n'era sempre meno. Le regioni di confine divennero lande semivuote, tentazione fortissima per i barbari. Si pensò allora di arruolare i Barbari concedendo loro i benefici della civiltà romana. A questo ben si prestó un'imponente ondata migratoria di Goti avvenuta nel 376 D.C.. Abitualmente, nei confronti delle popolazioni sottomesse, i Romani esercitavano una strategia inclusiva. Preferivano farne cittadini romani e assimilarne la cultura, per evitare future ribellioni. Gli ufficiali militari che dovevano garantire loro supporto e provviste - un'antica rete di supporto ai migranti - si rivelarono corrotti e approfittarono dei mezzi stanziati per i nuovi arrivati, vendendo le provvigioni al mercato nero. I Goti si trasformarono in carnefici e il 9 agosto del 378 d.C., ad Adrianopoli, in Tracia 30 mila soldati dell'impero, furono massacrati da essi. In seguito alle tasse eccessive, il romano medio cessó di amare una res publica che lo opprimeva e lo affamava. Nel IV secolo gli imperatori cristiani cercarono di tamponare la falla principale con leggi contro il lassismo morale, intervenendo sui divorzi, gli adulteri, perfino multando chi rompeva le promesse matrimoniali. Ma ormai era troppo tardi. Il collasso dell'Impero Romano era segnato. I parallelismi con la situazione attuale sono molteplici e vengono inaspriti dal fatto che oggi qualcuno pensa che un giorno un'altra cultura possa essere la nostra, ignorando la possibilità che questa possa annientarci e come già successo nel passato possa segnare il fine di una civiltá. "Patria est ubicumque este bene" la patria è dove si sta bene. Per cui, se non ci si trova bene.... Sullo scatto: Una delle meravigliose ville (ricostruzione) della "Colonia Ulpa Traiana" del sito archeologico di Xanten. Gli interni delle ville sono completamente arredati. Annesso vi è un bellissimo museo con reperti dell'epoca romana. Consigliato anche a famiglie con bambini. #Storia #Emozioni #Musei #Archeologia Commenti e critiche costruttive sono sempre benvenuti.
