2- The Second Continental Congress was the convention of delegates of the Thirteen Colonies, which began its meetings on May 10, 1775, shortly after the outbreak of the War of Independence of the United States. It was a continuation of the First Continental Congress, which met during the previous year.

Effects if splitting the Roman Empire?
maria [59]

Answer:

Splitting the Roman empire into two parts however did not work. Rome was now easily attacked by military invaders. Rome also could not fight well. They had to hire mercenaries to fight for them. This was not the best plan because mercenaries are not always loyal to the country that they are fighting for. Rome also faced political turmoil. The government was now very oppressive which lost them the support of the Roman people. Rome also faced economic weakness, due to very high taxes. Rome also relied more heavily on slaves not the technology that they had developed and used before. The final problem that faced Rome was the social decay. Romans no longer held the key values of the Roman culture like patriotism, discipline, and devotion to duty and the upper class was too dedicated to luxury and prestige.
