  1. Rome started as a small city state in central Italy under the thumb of the Etruscan kings. At the time you would not think that Rome could amount to much. It later provided the modern Latin alphabet (among many things), which we are essentially using now, and which was originally derived from a Western Greek script.

  2. Strangely missed the Norman invasion and conversion by William I, less than a century later after Eadgar was king of the English.
