Question

Which of the following best demonstrates how the societies of the Greek polis and the Roman Republic differed?

Answer 1

The correct answer is: Roman society was hugely militaristic, bent on territorial domination, and Greek city-states were democratic and focused on arts and culture.

One of the main differences between the Greek polis and the Roman Republic is that the Greeks had a democratic society, they were researchers, lovers of knowledge, wisdom, and beauty.

On the other hand, the Romans had an aristocratic society, they were practical and their main interest was to expand the Empire through military forces and also to enrich themselves.
