The Roman Army was organized into legions of 5,000-6,000 men commanded by a legate. Each legion was divided into ten cohorts made up of six centuries of around 100 men each, commanded by a centurion. Centurions were important leaders responsible for training and discipline. Standard bearers carried symbols of each century into battle. To become a legionary, one had to be a male Roman citizen between 18-20 years old and at least 5'3" tall, expected to serve for 25 years with regular marches while carrying heavy equipment for training. Auxiliary soldiers from conquered lands also served alongside legions.

Roman army
The Roman Army was made up of professional soldiers from across the Roman Empire who served for at least 25 years. Soldiers of higher ranks like centurions led groups of 80 ordinary soldiers. Centurions could punish disobedient soldiers with sticks. Roman soldiers underwent rigorous training and were expected to march long distances in armor while carrying their equipment. They fought in tight battle formations using coordinated shield tactics.

The Roman military had sophisticated weapons, armor, and tactics that made it highly effective. Soldiers used swords and javelins in combat and wore armor that evolved over time to become segmented iron plates covering the chest and shoulders. The military was also very organized, with legions of around 5,500 men divided into cohorts, centuries, and commanded by centurions. Siege weapons like battering rams and scorpions were used to attack fortified cities. Overall, the Roman armor, weapons, and tactics made their military extremely powerful during the Roman Empire's peak.

Roman empire
The document provides details about Augustus Caesar and his rise to power in Rome. It describes how after defeating Mark Antony at Actium, Octavian consolidated his power while maintaining a facade of republican government. He was given the honorific title Augustus and became Rome's first emperor. Augustus reformed Roman government and society, helping to usher in two centuries of Pax Romana, or Roman peace. The document outlines Augustus' political and military reforms that stabilized Rome and established it as the dominant power in the Mediterranean world.
The Roman Empire: the Rise and Fall
The Roman Empire began as a small town in Italy in 500 BC but quickly expanded through military conquest led by able generals. By 133 BC, Rome controlled Italy and territories across Europe, North Africa and the Mediterranean. This expansion led to wealth but also internal problems as generals became more powerful than politicians. The assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC ended the Roman Republic and began the Roman Empire under Augustus, who brought two centuries of peace and prosperity known as the Pax Romana. During this golden age, the empire reached its height and Romans advanced architecture, infrastructure and arts.
Roman Army, 5 Ws
The Roman Army originated around 3,000 years ago from a tribe called the Latins who established the city of Rome. Over time, Rome built a powerful army that allowed it to conquer surrounding lands and establish a vast empire throughout the Mediterranean region. The Roman Army existed from around 100 BC to AD 138 and served to defend Roman territory from invaders, expand the empire through conquest of new provinces, and protect the empire's frontiers. The frontiers of the Roman Empire included fortified rivers like the Rhine and Danube as well as natural barriers like the Sahara Desert and man-made structures like Hadrian's Wall along the northern border of Roman Britain.
The Roman Empire
The Roman Empire began under Augustus in 27 BC and lasted over 200 years. Augustus cleverly transitioned Rome to a stable empire through strengthening his authority but maintaining traditions. This period of stability and growth under Augustus is known as Pax Romana. During Pax Romana, trade increased, Roman law was standardized across the empire, and Roman culture spread. However, by the 400s AD, the empire was in decline due to overtaxation of citizens to pay soldiers, inflation, and raids from Germanic tribes. The Western Roman Empire finally fell in 476 AD when the Germanic chief Alaric sacked Rome, marking the transition from Roman rule to the Middle Ages in Europe.

Vikings
The Vikings originated from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark where the land was rocky and difficult for growing crops. They began raiding places like the monastery at Lindisfarne in England in 787 AD because England had fertile land and treasures they sought to claim. The Vikings used longships, crafted from wood and powered by sails or oars, to facilitate their raids and exploration, spreading their influence to places across Europe and even reaching North America.
Romans in Britain
The Romans conquered Britain in the 1st century AD. They were led by emperors like Claudius and generals like Aulus Plautius.

The army was successful due to its professional organization, disciplined training, and effective formations and strategies for attack and defense.
6.0 - The Roman Military
The Roman military had several strengths that allowed it to conquer vast areas. It had a strong hierarchy and chain of command that enabled flexible battlefield tactics. Soldiers used effective armor like the lorica segmentata and weapons like the gladius sword and pilum javelin. Legions of around 6,000 men were organized into cohorts, centuries, and units to enable orderly command structures that remain influential today.
The Vikings and England
Vikings from Scandinavia began raiding the coast of England in the 790s, targeting monasteries. By the 860s, a large Viking army had conquered most of eastern England, establishing the Danelaw territory. Saxon king Alfred the Great defeated the Vikings at the Battle of Edington in 878, and established fortified burhs to protect against further invasions. The Normans, descended from Vikings, ultimately defeated the Saxons at the Battle of Hastings in 1066, leading to Norman control of England under William the Conqueror.

Roman Culture
Roman society was male-dominated, with the eldest male, the pater familias, ruling the family and women considered property. Rome grew extremely wealthy through trade along its extensive road network and by enslaving populations from conquered territories. Enslaved men were often forced to fight as gladiators in brutal public combat matches sponsored by wealthy politicians to influence elections. The largest of these venues was the Coliseum, built by Emperor Vespasian, which could hold over 80,000 spectators. In 73 BC, the Thracian gladiator Spartacus led a slave revolt that grew to over 120,000 people but was eventually crushed, with 5,000 followers crucified along the Appian Way.

The Roman Republic Briefly
The Roman Republic was established in 509 BCE after the overthrow of the Etruscan monarchy, organizing the government into a combination of aristocracy, oligarchy, and democracy with citizens electing consuls and a senate to advise them. Society was divided between the wealthy patrician class and the plebeian majority, who engaged in occasional strikes to gain more political power.

Rome powerpoint 2013
Rome began as a small city-state founded by Romulus and Remus along the Tiber River in Italy. It grew to become a large empire due to its strategic location along major trade routes. Rome conquered neighboring lands and expanded its territory through military campaigns. At its height, the Roman Empire stretched across Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia and had over 50 million inhabitants living under its rule. However, internal conflicts and invasions by external groups like the Visigoths eventually weakened the Western Roman Empire, leading to its collapse in 476 AD. Meanwhile, the Eastern Roman Empire continued on from Constantinople and is referred to as the Byzantine Empire.
What weapons and tactics did the romans use
The Romans were highly successful in war due to their effective weapons and tactical formations. They had armor like the lorica segmentata and helmets like the cassis to protect soldiers. Offensive weapons included the short gladius sword, powerful pilum javelins, and mounted ballistae and onager artillery. Defensive formations were used like the tortoise and wedge to minimize casualties and break enemy lines. Together, these weapons and tactical innovations allowed the Roman army to dominate opponents.

Some common horror subgenres mentioned are comedy horror, slasher films, supernatural horror, and psychological horror. The document also defines a hybrid genre as a mix of two different genres, such as the combination of western and horror in "Deadlands", or the sci-fi/horror blend of "Alien". Horror comedy combines horrific elements with comedy. Slasher films involve a psychopathic killer stalking victims with a weapon. Supernatural horror depicts impossible events like demons. Psychological horror builds tension through character fears and emotions.
Hero Myths: Tools for Analysis
This document discusses Joseph Campbell's concept of the monomyth or the hero's journey. It describes the common stages of Campbell's monomyth as departure, initiation, and return. It notes that Campbell's monomyth is popular among Hollywood writers but that some scholars criticize it for focusing too much on individualism and being biased against non-Western cultures. The document advocates analyzing hero stories by examining their original cultural context and meanings rather than just through Campbell's framework. It provides examples of analyzing the Greek myth of Perseus, the biblical story of Jonah, and the historical figure of Joan of Arc.

The epic explores whether humanity can achieve the same status as the gods.

【业务选择办理准则】
一、工作未确定，回国需先给父母、亲戚朋友看下文凭的情况，办理一份就读学校的毕业证【微信：A575476】文凭即可
二、回国进私企、外企、自己做生意的情况，这些单位是不查询毕业证真伪的，而且国内没有渠道去查询国外文凭的真假，也不需要提供真实教育部认证。鉴于此，办理一份毕业证【微信：A575476】即可
三、进国企，银行，事业单位，考公务员等等，这些单位是必需要提供真实教育部认证的，办理教育部认证所需资料众多且烦琐，所有材料您都必须提供原件，我们凭借丰富的经验，快捷的绿色通道帮您快速整合材料，让您少走弯路。

Roman Army
- 2. How was the Roman Army organized? • Main part of the army was the LEGION • This was made up of 5000-6000 men under the command of the LEGATE
- 3. How the Roman Army was organized • The legion was divided into ten cohorts • Each cohort was made up of six centuries • The centuries were commanded by a centurion • Centuries originally had 100 men
- 4. How the Roman Army was organized • The centurions were very important men • They were responsible for training the soldiers under their command and making sure everyone obeyed orders. • Some were very cruel
- 5. Standard Bearers • Each century had its own emblem or standard. • This was carried by the standard bearer, a very experienced and trusted soldier • To lose your standard was a great disgrace
- 6. How to become a Legionary! • You had to be a Roman citizen • You had to be physically fit and 5 ft. 3 inches tall • You were expected to stay in the army for 25 years
- 7. Training • Most soldiers joined between 18-20 years old • There were three 20 mile marches each month • On each march the legionary would carry over 50 pounds of equipment
- 8. Training • Legionaries would also learn drill, or marching • This was important for learning maneuvres in battle • New recruits were given shields and swords twice as heavy as the real thing!
- 9. Who else was in the Army? • Auxiliaries- These were soldiers from lands conquered by the Romans • Volunteered to fight • many of these had special skills- like cavalry soldiers
- 10. Auxiliaries • Archers • Most fought with a sword and short spear • Thought of by Romans as second class soldiers , paid less and not trained as rigorously • After 25 years- they became Citizens (and their children too!)
- 11. Extra Credit Recruitment Poster • Create a poster recruiting men for the Roman Army. • It should include what most help wanted ads have – Picture and slogan – Requirements/qualifications – Job Description/duties – Benefits and salary
