Except for slavery, I liked the Roman republic. I liked the planning and engineering. I liked the constant cycling of new leadership.
Regarding the empire, there were too few good emperors to meet my liking. Or, put another way, the empire allowed too many lousy people to hold power for too long. For every Augustus there were too many Tiberius - Caligula - Nero style emperors.
