Roman society was one that constantly pushed romans to be more and more ambitious, to take more, do more and conquer more. Eventually you start stepping on people's toes who are trying to do the same thing, then you have two powerful people fighting for ultimate power (ceaser v. pompey, sulla v. marius, augustus v. marc anthony, etc.). Then there was the Marian reforms which made soldiers beholdened primarily to their general, not the state, for their rewards (usually land after the campaign was finished), couple that with legions frequently going further and further from Rome in the late republic, most Roman soldiers knew and depended on their general, and barely interacted with the state at all. So these generals gradually gained ferociously loyal armies that were closer to them than Rome in general, so they'd be pretty willing to fight for their general against another general, even when it would weaken the state as a whole. Obviously civil wars cause a huge amount of damage to their nation, both in lives and monetary cost. Plus usually whoever won the civil war would then proceed to kill all prominent citizens who even slightly leaned toward the opposing side. After two or three purges like this, many of the prominent families that made rome into a world power were completely in shambles and the bitter rivalries between them made future wars inevitable.

Answer:
Option 1 , Africa
Explanation:
The complete question is
The graph shows the distribution of world population in 2000.
Pie chart showing distribution of world population in 2000. Asia is 60.5 percent. Africa 13.4 percent. Europe 11.9 percent. Latin America and Caribbean 8.5 percent. North America 5.2 percent. Oceania 0.5 percent.
Based on the graph, which area is closest in population size to Europe?
-
Africa
- Oceania
- North America
- Latin America and Caribbean
Solution
Population of Europe in 2000 was 11.9 % of the total world's population and Population of Africa in 2000 was 13.4 % of the total's world population.
Rest all have the following composition
North America - 5.2% of the total's world population
Latin America and Caribbean - 8.5% of the total's world population
Oceania - 0.5 % of the total's world population
Thus, Africa has population closest to the population of Europe.
Hence, option 1 is correct
It was because of the fact that European countries were allied to each other, that drew them into the conflict.
Militarism, or the building up of a nation's military, was done because Europe was nervous. Serbia built up it's military, which made Austria-Hungary nervous, so they built up their military, which made Russia nervous, so...and so on.
