Assuming you're referring to ancient Rome, some characteristics would include pride, wealth, territorial expansion, and more importantly the military, which was at the center of society.

1. The Romans were the most powerful people in the ancient world from around the third century B.C. all the way until almost the sixteenth century A.D. That's about 1,700 of dominance. This fact is the most striking and telling of the Romans. They were the top dogs, influencing and controlling the whole western world longer than any civilization that has ever existed. Today, dozens of nations are either seriously influenced by Roman culture, or were directly shaped by its historical weight.


2. The Romans were master "stealers". Their roads wee copied by their northern neighbors during the Roman Kingdom, their toilets and aqueduct technolgoy and all that might have been taken from North Africans, their relgion was stolen from the Greeks, Christianity from the Judeans, military dress from the Gauls, art and education from the Greeks too... you get the idea.



3. They were fighters. Thy conquered the world not because it was a dangerous and scary place where there had to be somebody on top. Few wanted to invade and take the spoils or become "masters of the world" The Romans went far and wide in search of new land to take. Their ability to steal and adapt didn't exclude their military. Theirs was the most technically and tactically advanced army the world would see for ages. They rarely had reason beyond their own ambitions to expand and subjugate unwilling, victimized peoples into slavery and military service and often early graves. One historian said, "Rome created a wasteland and called it peace".



4. The Romans were decadent with their riches. Well, at least their leaders were. Rome, the city, had loads of huge and beautiful monuments dedicated to some victory or god or leader. The Pantheon (an expensive, domed temple built to honor the gods; famous for its freestanding dome), Nero's Palace (a huge, expensive personal mansion he built on the ashes of a section of Rome he burned down secretly), the Colosseum (a super-famous arena where people would fight and be executed in sand for entertainment of the masses), and the Circus Maximus (the largest arena in the world at the time, housing hugely popular chariot races and huger crouds) are just a few examples.

The myth of Psyche is about a beautiful young woman whom the goddess Aphrodite grew jelous of because the people of the land praised her as the goddess of love. Aphrodite ordered the god Eros (cupid) to shoot psyche with an arrow of love causing her to fall in love with something or someone ugly and dis honnorable to psyche's family. Eros went to pshye to shoot her but accidentally shot himself in the foot when he marvled at her beauty. An oracle told Psyche to go to the top of a cliff dressed to be wed to her new husband, a monster. she goes to the cliff and jumps. she is wisked away to a beautiful castle in the clouds. she meets her husband there. he tells her to never view him while he is sleeping. he is hidden for a reason to protect her. he tells her that he loves her and she believes him. she falls in love with him. one day her husband allows her sisters to visit her. her sisters were always jelous of Psyche they tell her that her husband is a monster who wants to kill her.  she let their doubt get to her head. she tried to view her husband while he slept. she viewed his beautiful face and saw that he was the god of love. her candle dripped wax on to his shoulder and woke him up. he left, angry that Psyche betrayed him by doing what he asked her to. he left and fled to Aphrodite who charged the girl with impossible missions. she made Psyche literally go to the underworld to proove her love to Eros. Psyche was tricked by Aphrodite to open up a makeup container that Persephone had her bring to Aphrodite. Psyche let Aphrodite get in to her head. psyche opened the container and unleashed a curse that put her on the brink of death. Eros found the strength to rush to his loves side. he demanded that Zeus make her a goddess. Zeus said yes out of fear of Eros and his powers of love. Psyche became a goddess after slaving away for Aphrodite for months. the story ended happily.

Intellectual property rights and the opportunity to profit from their ideas gives creators __________.
katrin2010 [14]
I think that the best answer is "c. an incentive to bring their ideas to market" - you can see that through the statement of "<span>the opportunity to profit from their ideas"- an opportunity to profit is an incentive to work and in the case of the creators - to bring their ideas to market.

However, an opportunity to profit is not a guarantee that one will profit - so for example option a) is wrong. </span>
