"The History of Rome, Book V" by Theodor Mommsen is a historical work published in 1885. This volume examines the provinces of the Roman Empire in thirteen stand-alone chapters, departing from the dramatic narrative style that made Mommsen's earlier volumes famous. Unlike his chronological telling of the Republic's rise and fall, this work presents each imperial province as an individual subject, offering a geographic and administrative survey from Caesar to Diocletian. The English translation appeared as "The Provinces of the Roman Empire."
