If you could insert a plot twist into any historic event, what would it be?

How would that plot twist change things?
The Goths and Gauls integrate into Roman society slowly changing it to be more like theirs. The Roman Empire continues to exist as a (successor) city state that controls a swath of central Italy. Like several other city states it eventually transforms into a republic of sorts. When the Italian states are united after Napoleon, they agree to join the continuously free nation of Rome, forming the nation of Italy as a direct successor state of the Roman Empire and Modern Roman Republic. Nothing much changed, but Rome technically didn't fall :P
