The city was in ruins, and the population, what remained of it, anyway despaired. The new rome that would grow out of the ashes of the gallic sack would be recognizable to day with its haphazard streets devoid of any central planning. There was, in fact, no planning, whatoever, the romans simply pickedu what material they could salvage and began rebuilding wherever the whims of each individual directed them. El and welcome the history of rome.
