Important Roman Dates Click Quiz

You'll be prompted with an event and you must click the correct date that it happened. This is a study aid for me and possibly others. I did not research these dates nor the events; this list is from the syllabus for CLA1102 (Roman Civilization) at uOttawa. However, this is not the exact wording of the source list, I have mended some errors and altered wording for clarity, but, like 90%, this is the list.
