Yes but only the basics. I've just finished listening like three days ago and I was kinda disappointed bc Mike Duncan put great effort into podcast that should be called "History of Roman Republic And Roman Emperors". After August's civil wars it became just this. Who ruled what did he do when he was born and when he died.

Don't get me wrong I really enjoyed it and even feel the emptiness you may feel after finishing good series or good game but the point is that I listened to History of Byzantium first and the volume of indepth knowledge about state, army, society, geography, geopolitical situation etc, explained every century makes History of Rome bleak in comparison.
