		<description><![CDATA[The capital of the Roman Empire did not move directly to Byzantium. It wandered a bit first. In 286 the empire was divided and there were then two capitals, Rome and Byzaantium. The Western Empire capital was moved to Milan in 293 and later to Ravenna, which at that time was a port city, in 402. When Rome &quot;fell&quot; in 476, the event occurred in Ravenna.

quotes are mine...

&quot;Nothing fell. The capitol was moved. 

Marxism posits that in all things the lower order of organization destroys itself for the higher order of organization.

The acorn sacrifices it&#039;s life and identity to became the oak.

The acorn and the oak have seperate identities.

History for at least the last century promotes the Marxist worldview.

But, in contrast to Hollywood and established liberal opinion, there is no real beginning or end between what is commonly stated as western development.

Marxism relies on CONFLICT. Or CONTRAST.

So the Greeks were conquered by the Romans who were conquered by the Germans who were conquered by the Anglo-Saxens and so on.

In reality, all that was good and right was never the outcome of conflict. 

Rethink history a bit here.

Remember the acorn and the oak?

The acorn doesn&#039;t die to change into the oak.

It grows into the oak.

Our history is like this.

Our civilization grew upwards not through the idea that one civilization had to die to bring about the birth of another.

The growth of Rome was no more predicated on the death of Greece than than the growth of an oak tree is predicated on the death of an acorn.]]></description>
