1. The document discusses theories for how New Zealand was formed, including the theory of continental drift which states that centuries ago, all the continents were part of a single landmass called Pangaea that later broke apart. 2. According to continental drift, New Zealand broke off from the supercontinent Gondwanaland and now lies between the Indo-Australian and Pacific tectonic plates. 3. The document explores both scientific explanations and Maori traditions for New Zealand's origins and how the land and people came to be in their current location.

The document prompts students to consider New Zealand's relationship with other countries and role as a conservation model.
L9 Augustus - Constitutional Settlement 3
1. Augustus took additional steps to consolidate his power following the initial constitutional settlements, including renewing his powers as proconsul and assuming the role of pontifex maximus.
2. He repeatedly refused the consulship but accepted consular imperium in 19 BC, allowing him to sit between consuls and have lictors.
3. His personal prestige and auctoritas among the Roman people was so great that he could achieve his aims without direct orders or use of imperium, and this authority increased over time as republican government became less familiar.
L7 Augustus - Constitutional Settlement 1
Octavian held the consulship for 9 consecutive years from 31 to 23 BC, making him the predominant military power with control over 20 legions. In 27 BC, he declared that he had transferred control of the state to the Senate and people of Rome, though he retained proconsular power over Spain, Gaul and Syria for 10 years. This made Octavian equal in power to provincial governors but superior as he was also consul. The Senate granted Octavian honors including the title Augustus and the right to wear triumphal dress and a laurel-wreathed shield.
L8 Augustus - Constitutional Settlement 2
The document summarizes the Second Constitutional Settlement of 23 BC which established Augustus' position of power in Rome. The settlement granted Augustus tribunician power which allowed him to influence and control political outcomes through different authorities like veto power and pardons. It also granted him greater imperium or command power. This effectively made Augustus the most powerful man in Rome, though he had to get the senate to approve granting these powers to his chosen successor, establishing a type of hereditary dynasty, as happened with Tiberius.
L6 Augustus - Constitutional Settlements
Octavian rose to power following the civil wars by defeating Mark Antony and Cleopatra at Actium. While others helped his rise, he consolidated power through constitutional settlements that established his rule while maintaining the forms of the Roman Republic. He became Consul for life but reduced the military and gave gifts to maintain popularity as Rome faced threats from barbarians and potential uprisings.
L5 Augustus - Military Campaigns
The document summarizes key events in Augustus' early military campaigns:
1) The Battle of Perusia in 41/40 BC where Octavian drove Fulvia and Lucius Antonius back to Perusia and starved them into surrender, though he spared Lucius Antonius.
2) The Treaty of Brundisium in 40 BC where war was averted through negotiations between Maecenas and Asinius Pollio that further arranged power balances.
3) Octavian's campaigns against Pompeius from 38-36 BC which established his control over the grain supply and Sicily and Sardinia.
L4 Augustus - Philippi
The document discusses Augustus' early days as ruler of Rome, specifically the Proscriptions of 43 BC and the Battles of Philippi in 42 BC. The Proscriptions aimed to eliminate political enemies and those opposed to Octavian's rule through confiscation of property and execution, but they were ineffective in the western provinces. This led to the Battles of Philippi, where Octavian sought revenge against his enemies Mark Antony and Brutus, which resulted in Octavian's victory and solidification of his power.
L3 Augustus - Early Days
The document discusses Augustus' early rise to power after the Battle of Mutina in 43 BC and the formation of the Second Triumvirate in 43 BC. It provides lesson aims and questions about the battle, in which the Senate ordered Octavian and the consuls to defeat Mark Antony. It then discusses the Senate's treatment of Octavian after the war and his reaction. Next, it asks students to create overviews of Octavian, Mark Antony, and Lepidus, the three men in the Second Triumvirate. It provides questions about why the Triumvirate was formed, the extent of their power, and the proscriptions where people were killed. Finally, it assigns homework questions about a source related
L1 Introduction to Augustus
The document provides historical and political context surrounding the rise of Augustus in Rome. It discusses the transition from Roman Republic to empire under Augustus' rule between 753 BC to the 1st century AD. Key events mentioned include the founding of Rome, the end of the Roman monarchy in 510 BC, and Augustus' victory over Mark Antony at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC, which paved the way for him becoming Rome's first emperor. The document aims to explain the background of the Roman state and political system prior to Augustus' rule.
L2 Augustus - Parents
The document provides information about the parental lineage of Augustus and the history of the Roman political system.
