Despite the fact that the Roman Empire ended thousands of years ago, many different parts of the empire survived and still have a huge impact on life today. The aspect of the empire that I believe have had the largest effect today is the legacy of writing and language. Many citizens of this famous empire believed that this empire would last forever. But due to weak borders, a changed capital, and a bad ruler the empire eventually met its end and collapsed. Despite this fact the power empire will forever live on for many generation to come.
Even though Rome was no longer the most powerful empire, people still remember it to this day as one of the most important, historical times, because of its architecture and engenering. There are many roman legacies, but only one of them truly changed the world as we know it.Roman engineering and architecture is the most mind blowing thing that has ever happened in history! The legacies of Roman language and writing, as well as roman art are nothing compared to the architecture that the Romans have mastered.
The first way that Roman is different than Christian is because of there believe in gods. While Roman’s had many god they belief in that they believed in and they would sacrifice items to the gods so positive things would happened and if something bad happened than people blame the king or whoever does the sacrifice to the gods. Many gods in the Roman Empire like Juno, Minerva, Jupiter, and many others. While Christian believed in one God and they do not sacrifice things or animals to God. Christian praises their god by praying and going to church.
The Roman Empire had a significant impact upon Christianity for a number of reasons. Firstly, Christianity originated in the Roman Empire. The vast majority of early Christians lived in the Roman Empire. As the religion was made up of Roman citizens and was mainly contained within Rome, it was unavoidable that Christianity be affected by events in the Roman Empire.
Rome as we know it was not built in a day. It took years for the vastest empire of its time to become what we know it as today. Rome was an impressive military power and was organized in how they handled their affairs. The success of Rome comes down to a few major factors, such as, the strong leadership of Rome, the way they handled conquered lands as well as technological advancement. These factors can be seen as the foundation of the successes of the Roman Empire and were later taken on by successive empires and countries later on. However, out of all of these factors, one of them played a more crucial role in the success of the Roman Empire. The strong leadership of Rome can be said to be the most influential cause of the achievements of
Christianity also had a prominent impact on the fall of the empire. (Doc 2) The Romans did not like the Christians. They believed in one god, which made it easy for the emperor to turn the Romans against them, by blaming the fall of the empire on them. Also, many Romans became Pacificts because of the Christians, and this made it harder for Rome to protect itself, which already was a struggle.(OI)
The conditions in the Roman Empire were optimal for the development of what is now a prevalent and well established religion. Many factors were influential in the development of Christianity in Rome, and they all were successful in their own way. From Constantine to Paul, and the people their messages reached throughout the empire, they were all united under one
Many cities have conquered and excelled in many ways, gaining many treasures. One of those cities is Rome, achieving many levels of riches. In my opinion, Rome excelled in civilization by warfare, architecture, and founding fathers.
The population of Rome was mainly made up of peasants and farmers so when they learned that Jesus was like them it gave them hope of achieving eternal life. Christianity accepts people of all social classes so it spread quickly throughout Rome due to the lower class’s large population. When Constantine embraced Christianity and stopped the persecution of Christians the religion spread like wild fire because Christians could spread God’s word, like Paul, without being
Surprisingly, today, some inventions,beliefs, and ideas, are still around today, even some derived from Ancient Greek and Roman era. Both civilizations had extraordinary legacies that still have an enduring impact on the world, some of these discoveries were founded years back, usually around in the B.C and B.C.E times. Both Greek and Rome’s discoveries are very impressive, but Ancient Rome’s discoveries made a bigger impact on the world today, because of their legacies. These legacies include, checks and balances-3 branches/veto, twelve tables-rule of law, roads, aqueducts, and the spread of Christianity.
One of the most infamous emperor during the Roman Empire was named Nero Claudius Caesar (37-68 A.D). He was hedonistic, cruel and violent with people. Nero would always have lavish parties had no sympathy for people. As an always wanted to raise to the top even if he had to murder his own family. Since he mostly grew up with his mother Agrippina the Younger, he had a high chance to become ruler of
The Roman empire expanded and influenced a large region of the Indo-European continent. This influence served as a model, in some ways,by shaping the present day culture and laws we have. The large expansion of the Roman empire during the reign of Augustus brought about the assimilation of the Roman influence into various systems of politics, law, religion, and culture.
Creation of law, development of democratic government practices, influences in language, literature, art, infrastructure and city-planning are the areas where the influence of Roman ideas can be seen. Additionally, Roman influences have had considerable importance in the spread of Christianity. However, while it was the Roman Republic that established a four great contributions to the geographical area that would be identified as the west, the Roman Empire was the most important and influential model of an imperial system for Europeans until modern
The once glorious Roman Empire slowly faded from riches to destitution. There were countless reasons for the tragic demise of the empire, but the most prevalent reason was the decline in political stability. In the absence of a stable government, there is chaos and stark division. We can see this in many societies in the past. Without a leader or group of officials to control and maintain order, the society ends up confused, and fighting occurs. They also would try to do things their own way, or they would all do nothing until their downfall. This was very evident in the Roman Empire due to the bad emperors who took charge and caused the political system to fail.
