In Book V of The City of God, Augustine addresses a key question. In spite of the moral bankruptcy of the Roman state, Rome has extended her imperial sway throughout Europe and the Near East. If the pagan gods have not guided her to this eminence, how has this success been achieved? Latin text with translation, introduction and detailed commentary.
