The yeoman farmers, returned from war and found that their fields which having lain fallow during war time were overgrown with weeds and in a state of disrepair. With benefits offered them for moving into the city and starting an urban lifestyle, most farmers opted for the easier choice. The senate quickly made a land grab of all the small personal farms and combined them into corporate style ranches called "latifundia". The yeoman farmers who had been the backbone of Roman civic and military life were never again present in Roman society as they had been, and many argue that this was the beginning of the end of Rome's expansion of true power.
