What was the relationship between Greek and roman culture ?

History

Elenna [48]3 years ago

While both Greek and Romans were pretty ethnocentric by modern standards, the Romans assimilated far more people into their institutional lives.

Many non-Greeks adopted Gteek lifestyles, language and habits after the age of Alexander, but the cross-pollination was more frequently cultural than political. Cleopatra might have dressed like an Egyptian queen and patronized the Egyptian gods, but she wouldn't have had Egyptian generals or Egyptian judges. The Greeks tended to settle into the cultures they occupied like the British in India: remaining separate from and believing themselves superior to the people around them, even while encouraging the 'natives' to adopt their culture habits.

Romans did a much more thorough job assimilating the peoples they conquered. Non-Romans could and did become citizens, even from very early times. This started with neighboring groups like the Latins, but eventually extend to the rest of Italy and later to the whole empire. Eventually there would be "Roman" emperors of Syrian, British, Spanish, Gallic, Balkan, and North African descent Farther down the social scale the mixing was much more complete (enough to irritate many Roman traditionalists). This wasn’t just a practical accommodation, either — when emperor Claudius allowed Gauls into the Roman Senate he pointed out that by his time the Romans had been assimilating former enemies since the days of Aeneas.

Explain in four sentences. How the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 (End of WWI) led to Hitler's rise to
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The Treaty of Versailles, signed in June 1919 at the Palace of Versailles in Paris at the end of World War I, codified peace terms between the victorious Allies and Germany. The Treaty of Versailles held Germany responsible for starting the war and imposed harsh penalties in terms of loss of territory, massive reparations payments and demilitarization. Far from the “peace without victory” that U.S. President Woodrow Wilson had outlined in his famous Fourteen Points in early 1918, the Treaty of Versailles humiliated Germany while failing to resolve the underlying issues that had led to war in the first place. Economic distress and resentment of the treaty within Germany helped fuel the ultra-nationalist sentiment that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party, as well as the coming of a World War II just two decades later.

The correct answer is C. They provided a fresh water supply and rich soil for growing food.

Explanation:

Early human civilizations relied on agriculture and animal domestication because only through these activities humans could settle in one place and create villages, cities, etc. as they obtained food in one place. Additionally, these activities could be better developed near rivers not only because humans could have a constant supply of fresh water for themselves (essential for survival), their crops, and animals, but also because the land near rivers is usually fertile and ideal for agriculture. According to this, the reason why first cultures developed near rivers is due to the water supply and rich soil these provided.

Why were students better able than adults to organize a protest from the movie Selma
Alexxandr [17]

The students who marched at Selma were better prepared in a sense that unlike their adult counterparts, they were already briefed on what to expect when this march began.  Youth was also their biggest asset as they were energized and determined to promote the civil rights movement in the South. Even before the march, they were already veterans of other movements for equal rights.
