Slavery in ancient Rome played an important role in society and the economy. Besides manual labor, slaves performed many domestic services, and might be employed at highly skilled jobs and professions. Accountants and physicians were often slaves. Slaves of Greek origin in particular might be highly educated. Unskilled slaves, or those sentenced to slavery as punishment, worked on farms, in mines, and at mills.

Slaves were considered property under Roman law and had no legal personhood. Most slaves would never be freed. Unlike Roman citizens, they could be subjected to corporal punishment, sexual exploitation (prostitutes were often slaves), torture and summary execution. Over time, however, slaves gained increased legal protection, including the right to file complaints against their masters.
A major source of slaves had been Roman military expansion during the Republic. The use of former enemy soldiers as slaves led perhaps inevitably to a series of en masse armed rebellions, the Servile Wars, the last of which was led by Spartacus. During the Pax Romana of the early Roman Empire (1st–2nd centuries AD), emphasis was placed on maintaining stability, and the lack of new territorial conquests dried up this supply line of human trafficking. To maintain an enslaved work force, increased legal restrictions on freeing slaves were put into place. Escaped slaves would be hunted down and returned (often for a reward). There were also many cases of poor people selling their children to richer neighbors as slaves in times of hardship.
Answer:
wow, Cant comprehend what I just saw...
Explanation:
my brain is burnt.
Yes, I do think there’s a difference between history and culture. History it what has happened in the past, culture is our traditions,religions,food,places and things we’ve been doing over the years. It is important to study culture when studying history because they kind of collapse together. Like for example, día de los muertos (day of the day) that’s history from a long time ago but you can’t really go in depth into what it is without explaining the culture behind it. Hope this helps not really good at explaining things!!
if I'm not wrong, it is executive power
Answer: The Schlieffen Plan is a military plan of Germany in the First World War.
Explanation:
In particular, Schlieffen plan to fight along the western front of, more precisely, France. The German Supreme Military Staff's goal, drafted by experienced military personnel, gave a positive result at the beginning of the war, and French troops were pushed into the interior of the country. However, a sudden counterattack, organized from the Paris suburbs, soon followed, making the German troops. The fighting then concentrated in the Marne River area, which was the border between the two enemy armies. It is on the Marne War that the trench warfare will continue for years.
