Ancient Rome Assignment 10

 * Political Reasons

__Government and Power__ ** Many of the emperors ruled badly during the uneasy times such as during the wars. Only 25 emperors ruled in less that 25 years. The citizens started to not respect the rules during this time and the soldiers gave their loyalty to their general and not for the Roman Empire. The Empire Diocletian came in power and strengthened the government by dividing the leadership of the Roman Empire. Rome was so big so barbarians attacked Rome in all sides north, south, east, west. This result caused harder communication with other parts of Rome.


 * Economic Reasons

__Money/who has money/trade__ The Roman money started to lose value, so the prices of the food rose a big amount bringing difficulty to the citizens of Rome. When the Emperor Diocletian was during in the time he put price controls in place to stop the growth of the taxes and trade goods because there were too many taxes and many trades from the conquered land. A specific person didn't have the money, but the people who charged more than the price limit may be killed. Egypt was growing wheat, so the people buy wheat from Egypt. **

There was a huge gap between the poor and the rich causing fights and sometimes the people had Civil Wars, the generals of Rome fought with other Rome generals between them and because Rome expanded a lot, they had harder times for defending all borders, so they were always falling down by the barbarians of the Rome's point of view.

Ancient Rome Assignment 4
__Diary 1__ Today, it was a very bad day for me. Rome came over and told us to join the republic, but we disagreed, so we had a fight call the Punic War. Our country lost, but this got me really mad because we had to do a deal, so we had to give up Sicily, Sardinia, and Corsica. I wanted to have revenge on Rome.

__Diary 2__ While my father fought with Spain I was trained to become a strong leader. My dad had ideas for me to win the battle. My dad dumped the enemy's whip with a dump of snakes which made me win the battle easily. After my father's death, I was chosen to be the general of Spain, so I did accept.

__Diary 3__ Rome said that they would attack us, so I decided to do a surprise attack. I decided to attack Rome from the north with 90,000 foot soldiers, 12,000 cavalry, and 37 elephants over the Alps, but my plan didn't work as well because I lost many men and elephants. I used techniques to attack smaller outposts.

When I got home, my leaders in my hometown changed their mind and refused the peace term. Rome got mad, so they attacked my town, but I managed to run away and I died at the age of 64 years old.

 * 6. What did Rome do to Carthage in 146 B.C.E.? Why do you think the Romans did this?**

A positive example is that the Romans brought back great wealth and many slaves. The negative example is that the small farmers couldn't compete they lost their farms which produced more anger from the poor and rich. Rome also took all the technology from the places Rome conquered.

Ancient Rome Assignment 2
The partricians( a small group of wealthy people) are the claimed to have noble status in Roman society because they controlled most of the land and held the key of religious offices when the plebeians which was about 95 percent of the population were peasants, laborers, artisans, shopkeepers, and they had to do what ever the patricians ordered to do.
 * 1. What were the differences between being a patrician or a plebeian?**

The patricians had most of the power, so they changed the law to their interest. After this conflict, plebeians refused to go out for the military and didn't pay any heavy taxes. Eventually, the plebeians moved away from Rome and refused to work for the patricians. Instead of one king ruling like a monarchy government, there are 300 men call the senates.
 * 2. After Rome overthrew the Etruscan king, Tarquinius Superbus, they set up a republic. How did this form of government work?**

Rome's republican government has the patricians pick, so they don't have a specific law when Korea's government has a specific law that we should follow and we all agree on. The Romans have a king ruling when Korea has a president instead of a king ordering everyone.
 * 3. How is Rome's republican government different that what we have in Korea, the United States, or England today?**

The Conflict of Orders was when the plebeians demanded more political rights for themselves. They said that laws should be written down, so that the patricians can't change them.

The political rights of the plebeians made the roman republic become a demorcratic form of government. Also both patricians and plebeians both had a balanced power or equal right. They had the plebeians pick 10 plebs and the name of that was the "Tribunes of the pleb."
 * 5. What changes were made to the government to resolve this conflict and placate (make happy) the plebeians?**

I think that the Romans were able to unify their peninsula because they were surrounded which had highly defense and they were able to conquer and gain new territories.
 * 4. Why do you think the Romans were able to unify their peninsula and the Greeks could not?**

According to legend, two twins named Romulus and Remus were abandoned from their mother and they were found from a wolf and as they grew older, they went to kill Aeneas and they wanted to build a city, but they are argued about waht to call it and at the end Romulus killed Remus, so the city was named Rome after Romulus. The real story was that the Latins and later settlers built Rome on a seven steep hill and they went down to farm and at night they came back for defense.
