Ancient greece
The ancient Greeks lived in constant danger from barbarian invasions. To protect themselves, they formed city-states which were built on fortified hills called acropolises. Two famous city-states were Athens and Sparta, which had different forms of government and cultures but united against the invading Persian Empire in important battles like Marathon, Thermopylae, Salamis, and Platea. Working together, the Greek city-states were able to defeat the powerful Persians, leading to a period of cultural achievement known as the Golden Age of Ancient Greece.
Humanism and Reformation. 2º ESO (bil. inglés).
Humanism was a cultural movement that began in Italy in the 15th century that emphasized the importance of human beings and classical Greek and Latin culture. It spread through schools and universities supported by wealthy patrons, and the invention of the printing press was instrumental in spreading humanist ideas. Some key figures included Petrarch, considered one of the fathers of humanism, and Erasmus who advocated for Christian humanism.
Rennaisance y
The Renaissance began with the opening of the Silk Road by the Mongols, which exposed Europeans to Chinese goods and ideas through the travels of Marco Polo. The Black Death had some positive impacts by not damaging infrastructure and causing people to spend more. Ottoman conquests led Greek and Roman scholars to flee to Italy with ancient texts. Major trading cities like Florence and Venice grew wealthy during this period, with Florence being a center of art and architecture due to the patronage of the powerful Medici family.

Rome Review
Rome's geographic location along the fertile lands of the Tiber River and protected by the Mediterranean Sea and Alps mountains allowed it to expand its control largely unopposed. Its central position in the Mediterranean also enabled thriving sea trade. This strategic location was important to Rome's economic, social, and political development as it grew to become a major power in the ancient world.
Rome intro, geography, etruscans
The geographic location of the Italian peninsula in the central Mediterranean provided easy access to trade routes between Europe, Asia and Africa, which contributed to Rome's rise. The rugged mountains also provided protection for the northern Italian settlements. The Etruscans were the first inhabitants of northern Italy from around 750 BCE and conquered Rome around 600 BCE. They introduced artistic styles, religious practices, the alphabet and other cultural influences. The Etruscans ruled Rome under a monarchy for over 200 years until the last Etruscan king, Tarquin the Proud, was expelled in 509 BCE due to a popular rebellion, paving the way for Rome to establish itself as a republic.

Ancient Greece History
- The document provides an overview of ancient Greek history from the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations through the Hellenistic period. It discusses political systems like monarchies, oligarchies, tyrannies, and democracy. It also mentions important figures like Alexander the Great, Aristotle, and key battles against Persia.
Overview of Roman History
The Greeks and Etruscans were the two main civilizations in pre-Roman Italy. The Greeks inhabited Magna Graecia in the south while the Etruscans lived in modern-day Tuscany. According to legend, Rome was founded by Romulus, who killed his brother Remus during an argument. Rome transitioned from a kingdom to a republic in 509 BC after overthrowing the last Etruscan king, Tarquin the Proud. The republic expanded Rome's power throughout Italy and the Mediterranean region, defeating rivals like Carthage in the Punic Wars. Political instability led to the rise of Julius Caesar as dictator, but his assassination sparked a civil war won by his adopted heir Oct
Roman Republic
The document provides background information on the founding and early history of Rome. It describes how, according to legend, Romulus and Remus founded Rome after being raised by a she-wolf. In reality, Rome was built between 1000-500 BC by the Latin people along the Tiber River in a strategic location. The city grew powerful under Etruscan kings but the Romans revolted in 509 BC and established a republic. The republic was ruled by consuls, senators, and citizen assemblies and expanded Rome's territory through military conquests.
Ancient Greece World History
Greece's geography, with its mountainous terrain and proximity to the sea, influenced the development of trade and city-states. Early Greek civilizations like the Minoans and Mycenaeans engaged in seaborne trading. Later, Greeks founded autonomous city-states (polis) for protection and security. Athens emerged as the most powerful city-state during the Golden Age under the leadership of Pericles, establishing the world's first democratic system of government.
U12 Ancient Rome
The document provides background information on the origins and early history of Rome. It discusses:
- The location of the Roman civilization in the Italian peninsula in the 8th century BC.
- The three main tribes that inhabited the Italian peninsula at that time: the Etruscans, Latins, and Greeks.
- According to historical facts, Rome was founded in the mid-8th century BC by Latin tribes on seven hills near the Tiber River.
- According to legend, Rome was founded in 753 BC by the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, who were found by a she-wolf. Romulus later killed Remus and became Rome's first king.
Ancient Rome
The document provides background on the founding and early history of Rome. It describes how Romulus and Remus founded Rome after being raised by a she-wolf. Over time Rome became a large, prosperous city under Etruscan kings. The Romans then overthrew the Etruscans and established a republic with elected leaders. Rome expanded across Italy and the Mediterranean, fighting three Punic Wars against Carthage to gain dominance of the region.
Ancient Greece
The geography of ancient Greece, located along the Mediterranean Sea, influenced the development of early Greek civilization. The mountains, seas, and islands separated city-states and forced settlement along coasts and on islands, encouraging trade. Two early trading cultures emerged, the Minoans on Crete and the Mycenaeans on the mainland. The Greeks later created independent city-states like Athens and Sparta for protection. Athens developed as a center of culture, democracy, and trade while Sparta focused on military strength.
Introduction to Ancient Greece powerpoint
The document provides background information on ancient Greece, including its geography, development of city-states, and rivalry between Athens and Sparta. The mountainous landscape of Greece encouraged the formation of independent city-states along the coasts but also isolated communities. Athens developed the world's first democracy while Sparta was known for its powerful warrior culture and discipline. The two city-states eventually went to war in the Peloponnesian War, during which a plague helped lead to Athens' defeat.
Ancient greece ppt
Ancient Greece had a mountainous landscape that divided the people into independent city-states. Two major city-states were Athens, which developed the world's first democracy, and Sparta, which was a strict military state. The Greeks developed advanced thinking through philosophers like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. They also fought the Persians and each other in wars that weakened Greece. Subsequently, Alexander the Great conquered much of the known world and spread Greek culture before his early death. The resulting Hellenistic period saw advancements in science, math, and a blending of cultures across Europe and Asia.
French Revolution
The French Revolution was sparked by growing economic and social inequality between the three estates. The Third Estate, which represented the common people, bore the tax burden but had little political power. They rebelled in 1789, storming the Bastille and forcing King Louis XVI to accept a constitutional monarchy. However, tensions remained and radical factions grew more powerful. The monarchy was overthrown and Louis XVI was executed in 1793, marking the onset of the Reign of Terror by the Jacobins to consolidate the Revolution.
Ancient rome
Ancient Rome began as villages along the Tiber River in Italy that united in 750 BC to form the city of Rome. The geography of Italy, with mountains and a good climate, allowed Romans to grow crops and use hills for defense. Rome expanded its territory over centuries through military conquests until it ruled a vast empire throughout the Mediterranean region by the 1st century AD. The Roman Republic established around 509 BC was replaced by the Roman Empire when Julius Caesar became dictator in 44 BC, ending the Republic.
