Tiberius had a brilliant military career and with his younger brother Drusus helped carry out the expansion of the Roman empire along the Danube and into modern day Germany (16 BC - 7 BC, 4 AD - 9 AD). He succeeded Augustus in 14 AD. Initially, his rule was positive. He improved the civil service and restored Rome's financial condition.
The history of Roman theater stretches far back into history. It is thought theatrical performances took place in ancient Rome from the 4th century BC, after the establishment of the Roman Republic. However, most of the earliest known examples of Roman theater come 200 – 300 years later, starting a period that stretches into the 3rd century AD, before the fall of the Roman Empire.
Throughout this era, theatrical performances became a central part of Roman life, often acting as commentaries on society. Works from famous Roman playwrights, including Plautus and Terence, were a considerable influence, even transcending the theater to improve education and literacy in ancient Rome. Such was the quality of their works that many survive and are still performed today.
