how did the fact that the roman army consisted of poor volunteers contribute to the collapse of the roman republic
SIZIF [17.4K]
So, if your army consists of untrained and unskilled volunteers - the only chance you have is winning in numbers. However, sometimes even that isn't enough. If you don't have strong, well built, and skilled warriors to defend your nation - an attack could leave you vulnerable to a collapse.

What was the mood of the Continental Congress in the early days of the conflict with Britain? ​
Scrat [10]
From 1774 to 1789, the Continental Congress served as the government of the 13 American colonies and later the United States. The First Continental Congress, which was comprised of delegates from the colonies, met in 1774 in reaction to the Coercive Acts, a series of measures imposed by the British government on the colonies in response to their resistance to new taxes. In 1775, the Second Continental Congress convened after the American Revolutionary War (1775-83) had already begun. In 1776, it took the momentous step of declaring America’s independence from Britain. Five years later, the Congress ratified the first national constitution, the Articles of Confederation, under which the country would be governed until 1789, when it was replaced by the current U.S. Constitution.
