Use the quotation to answer the question. “Greece has conquered her rude conqueror.” What did the poet Horace mean by these word

damaskus [11]

I believe Horace means that Greece won freedom from the Romans and somewhat ruled them. Like you said, Greek architecture, art and science merged with Roman knowledge. Furthermore, Greeks controlled the Roman Senate.
I think you're trying to see the "fight" from both sides. You can't. For this assignment, you have to write from the perspective of Greeks being victorious.
