Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

Panem et circences translated as, bread and entertainment, is a phrase that refers to superficial, ready, satisfaction and appeasement. That is, to gain public approval by providing the most immediate needs of the population, for example food and entertainment.

In 140BC, Roman politicians kept the votes of poorer citizens by giving out cheap entertainment and food and this method became a very reliable and effective way to get power.

Panem et circences was not a smart way to keep control of such a huge empire as the people would not hold politicians to do their work after having been enticed by food.

We can still find this in the poorer developing countries today. The leaders of these countries donate food to, and host parties for poorer people during elections to get their votes and get into power, while ignoring their duties to provide public service.

Description and historical importance of Athenian women
leva [86]

Answer: The woman took care of the family and the house.

Explanation:

When we talk about women's position in Athenian society, that position was not of significant historical importance. The community in Athens was patriarchal organized. The woman mostly spent time in the house, taking care of the children, and doing housework. That a woman did not have a significant influence in society is also shown by the fact that a woman, even if she was born an Athenian, did not have the right to make political decisions. Even at the time of the birth of Athenian democracy, women did not influence any decision-making, nor did they have the right to vote.
