History

Kipish [7]3 years ago

Answer:

D. to keep from using a sacred Christian term to describe historical events

Explanation:

These terms are being replaced because in this way religious diversity can be respected. Remember that "AD-BC" come from christianity:

<u>AD</u>- Anno Domini, this means "in the year of the Lord", it refers to a year after Jesus Christ was born.

<u>BC-</u> before christ.

As you can see, these terms divide universal history based on a religious event from a particular religion.

The terms "BCE-CE" don't make reference to a religious event so anyone can refer to them without any moral or ethical problem.

BCE- before common era

CE- common era

Describe the major contributions of classical Roman civilization,
zheka24 [161]

Not sure if this will help but here's what I put:

They developed lots of new techniques for buildings and constructions. They also brought about incredibly well put together aqueducts that ran for miles. They built military roads and they are still a basis for many things that we build today.

They talked about equality under the law, and also came up with The Twelve Tables, which are very well known today. Christianity was banned in ancient Rome and Christians were punished for a very long time because of this. They were even fed to lions as entertainment.
