520 _aDuring the first, stable period of the Principate (roughly from 27 BC to AD 235), when the empire reached its maximum extent, Roman society and culture were radically transformed. But how was the vast territory of the empire controlled ? Did the demands of central government stimulate economic growth, or endanger survival ? What forces of cohesion operated to balance the social and economic inequalities and high mortality rates ? Why did Roman governments freeze the official religion while allowing the diffusion of alien, especially oriental, cults ? Are we to see in their attitude to Christianity a policy of toleration--or simply confusion and a failure of nerve ?
