I discovered that a key moment in Roman history was a very little-discussed raid by pirates on the Port of Rome at Ostia.

Rome was at that point the dominant world superpower, and there was no state in the world that would ever have dared to attack Rome. But the Romans were attacked by a group of stateless desperados who set fire to the Port. The flames may well have been visible in Rome itself. And this sent a shockwave through Rome, because if pirates could strike that close to the imperial capital, nowhere was safe.

And in this panicky atmosphere - an atmosphere of panic, I might say, which was deliberately whipped up by ambitious politicians - the Roman people took a series of fatal steps, surrendering some of their liberties and some of their control over their government. And in doing so, they sewed the seeds of the destruction of their own democracy.

And the more I looked at that event, the more it seemed familiar to me and the parallel with 9/11 - and in particular the response to it.

To write an autobiography, you want to focus on the good, memorable moments, and how others influenced you to get you to the position you are in today. Therefore, all of the answers but the first and sixth are good answers to use in this scenario.

Starting from the very beginning makes a timeline out of it and doesn't allow the autobiography to focus on the development of your character.

Starting with present time and looking back shows the audience how you have used certain tactics to get where you are today and how you applied them to your character and strengthened it overall.

Including how important people influenced you is a great decision because ti is going to show the development and changes that you made and how these people helped shape you into the wonderful human being you are today.

Focusing on your point of view would be best because an autobiography is about you. Emphasizing other points of view would just allow the readers to infer certain opinions.

Writing about how you became stronger shows development in your personality and character and is a fantastic addition to your story.

Writing about funny moments wouldn't be the best choice because it emphasizes unimportant scenarios.

Overall, it is your story, so you can choose what you want to be in it!

In general, this statement is true in the sense that Truman was a pragmatic leader. He of course came into office because of FDR's death, so he had great shoes to fill. Yet he did so with great poise.
