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.

3. • The internet is an electronic infrastructure and it is the
window to the information superhighway.
• The internet offers access to data, graphics, sound,
software, text through a variety of services and tools for
communication and data exchange.
• The idea of internet originated in 1960 based on the
concept of pocket switched networks by the US Department
of defence to share secret information among them in
wartime.
• Internet in India was available for sometime through ERNET
which was made available for commercial use by VSNL
(VIDESHI SANCHAR NIGAM LIMITED) since 1995.
4. Network
The fundamental concept of internet is networking. When computers are
connected together to share resources, it forms a network. A network is
formed to share hardware resources like printer/scanner and software/
information like files, data base with other computers which eventually
‘reduces cost’.
Internet is a network of networks connected through different types of
communication channel to communicate irrespective of distance and
time.
Types of Network-
LAN: These are small networks of computers which span in small
geographical area, generally within 1-5 km of range. Ex: Network in an
office or within a building.
WAN: These are very large networks of computers and span large
geographical areas, generally covering a couple of miles, sometimes
connecting computers thousands of miles apart and worldwide.
5. How to connect to internet:
One should have computer, modem and internet access from any internet
service provider (for e.g. BSNL).
The word MODEM stands for modulator / demodulator. Modems convert
digital computer signals into a form that allows them to travel over the
phone lines.
World Wide Web (www) is a network of information resources. The digital
pages on www are called web sites. The first page of website is called
Home page.
Benefits or purposes of Internet:
Education
Publishing
Shopping
Advertising
Financial services
The business of governance
Career
Internet communication
E-mail

6. Limitations of internet
•Requirement of continuous power supply
•Failure in network
•Lack of knowledge for the people on use of internet
•Selecting the required information in the net is difficult from the
volumes of information.
•Sometimes it misleads the individual for wrong selection of
information
•Internet services are not available in rural areas hence farmers need
to travel to the urban areas to utilize the facility.

8. Cyber cafes / Information kiosks
Computer multimedia system facilitates interactivity and better
understanding between individual learners and the subject matter.
These combine a variety of information sources into a variety of
applications like electronic books, electronic magazines, information
kiosks / cybercafés and interactive multimedia.
Kiosk is a small enclosed structure, often freestanding, open on one side
or with a window, used as a booth to access to information in
agriculture and allied areas.
Information kiosks are the public installations wherein computers are
installed to make agricultural extension services accessible to people.
These are information access system for public use.
Cyber: According to Oxford Dictionary the word Cyber means,
“relating to Information Technology, the Internet, and virtual reality,
the Cyber Space”
9. The Cyber Space: Cyber Space is the imaginary or Virtual space of
computers connected with each other on Networks, across the globe.
These computers can access information in the form of Text, Graphics,
audio, video and animation files. Software tools on networks provide
facilities to interactively access the information from connected servers.
Cyber Extension: Cyber Extension is the “Extension over Cyber Space”
or ‘Extension over virtual space’.
But in the applied context of Agriculture, Cyber Extension means “using
the power of online networks, computer communications and digital
interactive multimedia to facilitate dissemination of agricultural
technology”.
Advantages of Cyber Extension:
Saves money, time and effort
Cut steps from extension process
Information rich and interactive
Offer instant international reach information
Continuously available round the clock
10. Examples of Cyber Extension in Rural India
•Information Village Shops / Information Village Project
Through these information shops every morning the information is
delivered to the farmers on weather forecasts, market prices,
scientific technology etc.
•Honey bee knowledge network
Under the honey bee knowledge network of Indian Institute of
Management, Ahmedabad a large number of grass root inventions
(Indigenous technical knowledge or ITKs) have been identified and
documented as short multimedia presentations. Database is created for
these innovations and these are made accessible via wide area network.
•E-Chaupal
“E-Chaupal” the unique web based initiative of ITC (Indian Tobacco
Company’s) International Business Division, offers information and
communication technologies related to latest local and global
information on weather, scientific farming practices and market prices
through the web portal all in Hindi.
11. Teleconferencing
It is interactive group communication (2 or more people in 2 or
more locations) through an electronic medium. It brings people
together under one roof even though they are separated by
hundreds of miles. It was first introduced in 1960’s with
American Telephone.
Basic types:
3 basic types are:
1. Video conferencing – television – like communication
augmented with sound.
2. Computer conferencing – Printed communication through
key board terminals.
3. Audio conferencing – Verbal communication via the
telephone.
12.
13. Video conferencing
Videoconference is a set of interactive telecommunication
technologies which allow two more locations to interact in a
two way video and audio transmissions simultaneously.
It is a remote meeting between two or more individuals present
in geographically dispersed locations.
Components of Video teleconference-
1. Video input – Video camera or webcam
2. Video output – Television / Computer monitor
3. Audio input – Microphones
4. Audio output – Usually loud speakers associated with display
device or telephone.
5. Data transfer – Analog or digital telephone network LAN or
internet.

15. Kisan Call Centres
The department of agriculture and cooperation (DAC) Ministry of
agriculture, Government of India launched kisan call centres on
January 21, 2004 across the country to deliver extension
services to the farming community.
A network of call centres have been established to cover the
entire country in all the principal languages to enable the
farmers get expert advice through a toll free number on BSNL
routes i.e., 1551 from any part of the country.
The service would be available 24 hours a day. While during office
hours there would be immediate response, beyond office hours
the call would be recorded and query answered by post.
16. Objectives of Kisan call centers
• To provide an IT enabled dynamic encyclopedia for use by farmers,
agriculture extension works, agri–input dealers and other stakeholders
in agriculture.
• To develop a data base which compiles and collates the actual needs
of the farmers and to classify them in an intelligent format for use by
policy makers, researchers, trade and industry.
• To provide an opportunity to the scholars and the agricultural
scientists to play a dynamic role in the transformation of Indian
agriculture.
• To establish a network of relationship among the scientists, policy
makers, extension workers, farmers and other stake holders.
• To harness the traditional knowledge systems available with the
farming community and with women farmers to enrich the body of
knowledge in agriculture related fields.
17. Three Levels of Kisan Call Center
Level 1: (6.00 P. M – 9.30 A. M on gazette holidays)
The first level operator is an agricultural graduate with a rural
background and knows the local language. They are expected to answer
a majority of questions asked by the farmers. The details of the question
and answers are fed into computer by operator.
In case the operator at level 1 is not able to satisfy the farmer, he
forwards the call to the concerned subject matter specialist sitting
anywhere in the state, in any institution, for giving advice.
Level 2: (9.30 A. M. – 6.00 P. M. All working days during office
hours)
It has subject matter specialists (SMS) who are at their respective place
(Research stations, ATIC, KVK, agricultural colleges) of work.
The 1st level operator forwards the call on ‘call sharing mode’ to level 2
centre & over 70% of questions from the 1 level get answered at this
level. The data relating to the caller including the question asked is also
be transferred to the Level-2 functionary on his computer along with
the call.
18. Level 3: (The management group)
It consists of a dedicated cell located at the nodal office. This
receives the questions that have not been answered at the first
and second levels as well as IVR calls (Interactive voice
recording). Appropriate replies to these questions are framed
in consultation with the concerned specialists available within
or outside the state by the nodal cell. The replies are sent to
farmers by post / e-mail / fax / phone within 72 hours of
receipt of question.
