indeed, for standing Legion to function, it has to be properly equipped and financed for expedition. In times of war, the cost of maintaining such field army cost more than medieval standing army. Notwithstanding the cost of provisions and war supplies, constant drills and training were necessary, however, during its decline, it was not due to the Legion failing military plan that brought it to end, it was its general incompetency and lack of effective communications and decline in discipline. In fact, without shadow of doubt, the Legion can still stand toe-to-toe with medieval period arms if not for the said circumstances. Various reforms were made before legion-type field army were abolished which failed miserably due to countless civil wars and loss of morale amongst the soldiers which constantly fighting against within and without conflicts. Justinian period legion were the last of its kind before it was replaced by more provincial-type arms introduced by Heraclius known as Themata. More effective in defending the empire but not so much in handling incursions. Themata were the field arms used till the end of the empire with substantial reforms made but failed to revitalized the spirits of Rome due to another lack of discipline and loss of morale. Territorial integrity slowly being chipped away by their adversaries helped little to mitigate the failing empire, with loss of finance, plagues and various issues further expediate the decline. In fact, the empire still held strong army even if they loss plenty of land, but lack of manpower and finance deemed revitalization impossible until its eventual fall. The reason why it stood tall while being surrounded by the Turks were that, they are still being feared.

This transformed the once-ordinary substances into their most lucrative commodity, rivaled only by the opulent trade in silk and earthenware, which had long stood as the most exotic treasures the Orient had to offer, both in antiquity and the present era.
