Hi!
The main comparison we can make between Rome and Byzantium is that they had different forms of religion.
The Roman people focused on worshipping Jupiter as a father of all 'gods', while the Byzantium people were just monotheistic.
If you are unaware of the term, monotheistic is basically only believing in and worshipping one and only one god. Polytheistic is the belief in <em>multiple </em>gods.
A similarity between the two empires was that they both gained entertainment from watching <span>gladiator </span>fights!
They often built large structures known as Coliseums in order to hold huge events where the gladiator fights occurred.
Hopefully, this helps! =)
1- To me, psychology means the discipline that tries to explain human behavior and its complexities.
2- That is easy to major in psychology but one has to read a lot to do so. That being insightful is needed if you want to pursue a career in this field.
3- Not really. Usually, in Tv and movies psychologist are portraited as Psychoanalysts or therapists. In real life, the field of the psychologist is broader and not everything is about psychotherapy.
4- That is a magical solution, that the therapists only listen to your problems and they magically disappear, that is easy, that is magical, that hypnosis work 100% of the time. That "shrinks" are crazier than their patients, that having a mental illness means that you are an aggressive person, and so on. Media either glamorizes or stigmatizes the figure of the psychotherapist.
Serf is the correct answer.
Under feudalism, serfs (also known as peasants) represented the lowest class in the system. Even though they were not slaves neither own the land the worked in, they were bound to it. Serfs were required to give a part of their harvest to the person who actually owned te land. In return, these serfs were able to keep their own subsistence and were protected against bandits, thieves and possible injustices.
