Now, in ruins.An empire in meltdown.
如今卻只余斷壁殘垣 帝國漸漸沒落
When you think about the Roman Empire
當想到連羅馬帝國這樣
And the complexity of the system that failed,
擁有極其復雜制度的國家都會沒落時
It's incredibly frightening.
真是讓人膽戰心驚
A system that could create the best army in the world,
這個制度可以創造出世界上最精良的軍隊
That could unite the entire Mediterranean region,
也可以統一整個地中海地區
The idea that a system like that can fragment and break apart...
每每想到連這樣的制度 都會土崩瓦解
it's apocalyptic.Gaiseric's men wreak havoc.
就會覺得世界末日來了 蓋塞里克的手下們肆意破壞
The Roman Empire will never recover.
羅馬帝國永無復原之機
When you see that kind of horror,
你目睹著周圍恐怖的場景
And you're stuck and trapped inside this city,
且發現自己被困在了這座城池之中
You start running out of options very quick.
很快你便無計可施 走投無路
You can't run, you can't hide,
跑也跑不掉 藏也藏不了
You can't defeat this force.
你也無法與這股勢力抗衡
They will rape,they will pillage and they will plunder.
在這種情況下 他們轉而會去凌辱婦女 掠奪他人財產
But the Vandals are no savages.
但汪達爾人并非蠻荒之人
They're educated and skilled in warfare,
他們都受過良好的教育且戰術精良
Thanks to the Romans.
這還要歸功于羅馬人
