Answer 1

One of the major contributions of classical Roman civilization was architecture. The architecture in Rome was modern which was not popular for that time. Romans were the firsts to use concrete to build things and they discovered that it allowed for their designs and constructions to last longer and survive harsh conditions. Wood and dirt structured buildings would hold up for a while, but concrete was much more reliable and it gave more structure. Another major contribution of classical Roman Civilization was the government. Their government was influential to other countries around the world because their government was strong and successful. Roman senators represented large groups of people and they ran Rome. Alongside the senators, there were Emperors who “ruled” Rome, but they did not do it alone or with absolute power. Having multiple people in power allowed Rome to meet the needs of all people rather than doing what one person (the ruler) thinks is best. This stopped Rome from having a leader with too much power during his reign of Rome.
