The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Essay Armor Of Ancient Rome
1. Essay Armor of Ancient Rome
Armor of Ancient Rome Ancient Rome expended a great deal of economic resources and effort upon conquest and expansion through military means.
The role of armor was fundamental in this expansion as it played a significant role in the success of the Roman armies on the battlefield. There were
three common requirements for armor construction throughout its history: The first was that armor had to be flexible enough to allow the wearer
freedom of movement; second, it also had to be lightweight enough to be worn without tiring the wearer while providing protection against opponents'
weapons; and third, armor had to be cost effective. These three aspects influenced the evolution of Roman cuirass (lorica) design throughout Rome's

Further reorganization occurred after the civil war of A.D.69, when the victorious Flavian dynasty dispersed disloyal units. As the Empire's expansion
slowed, permanent borders were established. Auxiliaries patrolled the borders and legionnaires were stationed within the frontiers to act as a strategic
reserve and intimidate potentially rebellious provinces. The army can be divided into two distinct parts: the legion and the auxiliary ( auxilia), with a
marked social division existing between the two. Only Roman citizens could become legionnaires, while auxilia were composed of non citizens
recruited from Rome's client states and tribes. These legions were supported by the non citizen auxilia consisting of infantry cohorts and cavalry (alae).
A legion consisted of around 5,000 men which were mostly heavy foot soldiers. However, it is only possible to attempt a rough estimate of the men
who constituted a legion. It has been estimated that the total number of Roman troops, including legions and auxilia, numbered more than 300,000
during the first century A.D. It has also been assumed that the legionary and auxiliary troops were equipped differently. This notion is based on
evidence from a single source, Trajan's column, which shows clear distinctions between legionary and auxiliary equipment. The early view put forward
by historians such as Webster was that the equipment issued to legionnaires was remarkably uniform throughout the

Roman Architecture
Many centuries before the birth of Christ, the city of Rome grew, prospered, and developed into a thriving Republic. As in most cultures, Rome's
buildings became more elaborate and impressive. They developed fantastic building technologies and ideas. The feats of Roman engineers were
groundbreaking, and many structures built by this culture still stand today. With knowledge borrowed from the Greeks, Rome made impressive
architectural achievements, these were namely major attributes of buildings, colossal structures, and a legacy that would influence later buildings
(Cornell and Matthews 11).
According to legend, the city of Rome was founded in about 753 BC, by a group of shepherds. It sat at an ideal...show more content...
The ancient Romans created and borrowed fundamental types of concepts that made up buildings. The ideas that the Romans borrowed were basic
ideas such as the column. A column is a vertical shaped pillar with the chief design concern of supporting a building. Most columns consist of three
parts, the base, the shaft, and the capital. The shaft is usually cylindrical in shape. The Greeks had three basic types of columns, Doric, Ionic, and
Corinthian. All three types have narrow fillets on them. These were small vertical slits that ran the length of the column. The Romans modified the
column and added two types, Truscan and Composile. The columns became widely used in homes and temples in Greece and later in Rome
("Architecture").
The Romans also borrowed from the Greeks other major structural designs. On the top of a column on most temples and public buildings rested an
Entablature. This is a classic triangular shaped façade, or front of a building. The Entablature consists of four parts. The lowest part is the Architrave,
which sits on top of the capital or upper part of a column. On top of that, the frieze was typically decorated with horizontal bands. The Cornice forms
the upper part of the Entablature and extols beyond the frieze on the sides. On the very top sits a Pediment, a triangular segment between the lower
Entablature and the roof ("Architecture").
The Romans borrowed the

Ancient Roman Laws
Although the history of Rome's regal period is based in large part on legend, and was so in antiquity, tradition was strong, and many of Rome's laws and
customs, committed to writing much later, have their roots in the distant past. Ancient Rome had many different types of law in government. Out of all
of the ancient Roman laws, the Julian Marriage laws, the laws of the kings, and the Justinian Codes, are some of them.
The Julian Marriage laws were very specific and determined. Emperor Augustus notice social problems at Rome, and he detected that extravagance and
adultery were very common in the Roman Government. In the upper classes, marriages varied; and when people did marry, they didn't create children.

The laws were enforced by the kings of Rome and the Twelve Tables. These laws were started by Romulus. Romulus forced the citizens to harsh every
male child and the first–born of the females, and he forbade them to put any child to death under three years of age, unless it was a cripple or a
monster from birth. He also made other laws, like one that which does not let a wife divorce her husband, but gives him power to divorce her for the
use of drugs or magic on and for her children. He also made another law which was more severe, and said that if a daughter–in–law strikes her
father–in–law, she shall be given as a sacrifice to his ancestors god/s. Numa Pompilius made other laws to add on to the Roman government too.
One of the laws he created included a royal law which forbade the burial of a pregnant woman before the child is taken out of from the mothers
womb. On the Vestal Virgins he gave high honors, which gave them the right to make a will while their father/s lived and of doing all other righteous
acts without a guardian. He also made another law which said that a concubine shall not touch the altar of Juno. If she touches it, she shall sacrifice a
lamb to Juno with her hair open and spread out. The twelve tables were very important. Each of them were about : I – A man may bring another man to
court, and may have witnesses, II – If someone needs

In this report about ancient Rome I will be talking about a lot of different things. One thing is how ancient Rome was different from ancient Greece,
their daily life activities and lifestyles, and also about their religion.
The ancients Romans were very different from the ancient Greek. "The ancient Romans were down–to–earth realists, not idealists."(Donn2) You can
see this in their statues. The Greeks made statues of perfect people. The Romans created real life statues. A good example of this is a Roman emperor
statue because his nose will be huge and the ancient Greek would have never done that. The Romans were fierce soldiers and wonderful builders. They
built roads all over the empire and all led to Rome. The ancient Greeks had...show more content...
Not like the plebeians their house were made quite often of brick with red tile roofs, with room arranged around a central courtyard. The windows and
balconies faced the courtyard, not the street, to keep their home safe from burglars. Real wealthy Romans might have a house with front door,
bedrooms, an office, a kitchen, a dinning room, a garden, a temple, an atrium, a toilet, and a private bath. (Davis132)
The ancient Romans started their day with breakfast. The lower class Romans or plebeians might have a breakfast of dry bread or dipped in wine,
and water. Sometimes olives, cheese or raisins were sprinkled on the bread. "It became a custom to distribute bread daily to the unemployed."(Donn3)
Workmen, on their way to work, grabbed some bread, and ate it on the way.
The upper class Romans or patricians enjoyed fresh meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, bread, and used honey to sweeten food because sugar was
unknown. They had slaves to cook and clean. Slaves cut their food for them, as they didn't use forks or knives, but ate with their fingers. A wet
towel was brought by slaves to clean and wash up after a meal. Early in the morning kids who went to school, on the run, often stopped at a bakery for
a quick meal, or to buy a pancake to eat on their way to school. (Lee3)

The story of ancient Rome is a tale of how a small community of shepherds in the central Italy grew to become one of the greatest empires in history,
and then collapsed. According to Roman legend. Rome was founded in 753 B.C. By 275 B.C., it controlled most of the Italian Peninsula. In the A.D.

At the heart of a Roman city laid the forum– a large open space surrounded by markets, government buildings and temples. Rich and poor gathered
together in the bustling forum and at the baths, theaters, and arenas.
The earliest Romans believed that gods and goddesses had power over agriculture and all aspects of daily life. During the 300's B.C., the Romans
came info increasing contact with Greek ideas. They then began to worship Greek gods and goddesses. They gave them Roman names and built
temples and shrines in their honor.
The government controlled the religion of ancient Rome. Priests were government officials, who were either elected or appointed to office. But by
A.D. 100, many Romans had lost interest in their religion. They became attracted to the religions of the Middle East, which appealed strongly to the
emotions. Christianity, one of the Middle Eastern religions, gained many followers.
The Romans began their day at sunrise. Breakfast was usually a light meal of bread and cheese. Most Romans ate lunch just before midday. For
wealthy Romans, it consisted of meat or fish and olives or fruit. Dinner, the main meal, began in the late afternoon so that it would end before sunset.
Wealthy Romans ate several courses at dinner. Their first course might include eggs, vegetables, and shellfish. The
