Why does Fiat money differ from commodity money?

Fiat money differs from commodity money because it is a more convenient form of money. It is easier to carry around paper money that it is to carry around gold or silver or other commodities. Fiat money is a promise to pay in the future while commodity money derives its value from the commodity of which it is made. Fiat money has value because the government declares that it has value. Fiat money only has value as a medium of exchange.

What is the difference between a commodity form of money and token money?

A commodity form of money is when the value of the money is determined by the intrinsic worth of what makes it. For example, if the money is salt (as was used by the Roman empire) then the value of the money is the same as the value of the same weight of salt in another form. A token form of money is when a form of money (for example a coin) is created that has little or no intrinsic value, but has value because a company or person has agreed to exchange the token for a good or service of value. One example is bus tokens - small coins that can be presented on buses in exchange for transportation.

Why did Rome's money finally become worthless?

Roman money finally became worthless because when Rome stopped conquering new lands, no new sources of wealth were available. Food was scarce. Making food prices go up. To pay for the food, the government decided to produce more money in the form of coins. The value of depended on the amount of silver in them. But since the government didn't have much silver, in put less and less value in the coins. (This is called inflation.) If inflation isn't controlled, money has less and less value.
