Answer:

The Greek and Roman are country are located in the Mediterranean. Rome assimilated into the Greek way of life but besides this, there were still existed major differences between ancient Rome and ancient Greek especially the Athens. The history of the ancient Romans and ancient Greek can be compared and contrasted using the economic, social and political aspects of the two countries.

In the colonial era, the Greeks and Romans affected and influenced each other. The two nations mostly interacted through trade at the black sea and Mediterranean regions. The trade also thrived due to security from roman military. As time eloped and civilization perpetuated, Romans adopted believes and practices of the Greeks (Guttman, 2012).

There exist differences and similarities in the ancient Rome and ancient Greek economy. Athens developed through sea trade, whereas Rome grew by conquest. Initially, Greeks practiced fishing and trading (Gill). Both countries practiced agriculture. Both countries grew wheat but the Greece failed due to bad farming techniques which led to poor wheat productivity hence they adopted mass production of olive oil (Gill). Olive oil and grapes was the major export by Greek while Romans common trade items were bronze and pottery .both Greeks and Romans used labor from slaves, both also practiced mining. Initially, the Romans derived their labor from slaves whom they acquired in war but later on the Greeks adopted the practice (Guttman, 2012).

Both romans and Greek practiced art though Greek art was deliberated to be superior to that of Roman Art. Roman art was to decorate using realistic portraits while Greek art was to produce ideal artistic forms. Greece was associated with art better known as Venus de Milo while the romance practiced fresci the mosaic or wall painting art(Robertson, 1969). Romans had concrete to build big better building unlike the Greeks. Roman architecture was characterized by arches and domes which Greeks didn’t use. The Roman and Greek temples were almost identical but the roman, incorporated few details like domes and vaults to make them more aesthetic(Robertson, 1969).

Both countries have different terrain though located in the Mediterranean region. All Greek cities neared water bodies while Rome was an inland country on the banks of River Tiber. Based on geographical positioning, Rome had immigrants and invaders which the Greek did not as most Greek cities were separated hilly country sides (Gill).

Summarily, the ancient Greece and Romans interacted through trade which was made convenient by their proximity to one another. The Romans adopted Greece way of life. Nevertheless, the two nation practiced agriculture and mining, practiced polytheism and did art and architecture. Greeks were governed through democracy while the Romans were republicans. The Greek art was superior to roman art though their architecture lacked arches and domes present in the roman architecture.in addition, women in Rome had right to own property and were citizens unlike Greece women who had limitations on movement and were not considered citizens.
