Late Ancient to Early Classical Era

States and Empires
As per the reading on page 120, the largest empire was that of the Persians, during the 500 B.C.E.  It is amazing on how people have lived during this area with nothing but the materials they had to survive with so many people.  With different cultures, languages, and religions and of course other thing that each other people will learn from each one is pretty much the same as the ones that we live in today the 21st century. The Persians kings were smart and knew who he wanted him to follow him for extra support.  I hate to say this but somewhere during ancient era times, ancestors of ours have been Facebooks, tweeting and Instagram and following each other for years. Until our modern technology took over to make our pattern of life be available forever for our future generation.
Alexander the Great, after his passing the Greek lifestyle has spread to other states.  It seemed during that time that many people who adore him wanted to continue to live the same lifestyle even after his death. How great was this man?
During the growth of the Romans from rags to riches and spread all around the Mediterranean area, this empire for the free man gave them too much power.  There were many slaves that were working for their master to build carriages, make weapons and armors, clothing, fruits and vegetables and grains has flourished to a great empire.  There were no laws that could protect the members of the free man or husband or would even come to the door to help the victims from the attacker.  If I lived during that time, I would make sure there would be some laws added to protect my family.  It would seemed they had problems such as health and people whom for whatever reason were poor and did what needed for survival.  As for the women’s role, and how they had flourished during the empire growth, to show economic growth as well as maintaining their own home.  Only if they were of wealth, the women, but many were of slaves for the Roman Empire and the states that surrounded. It is amazing how these great empires have grown and fallen.  It was interesting to find out how the Chinese Empire had lasted for so long and the reasoning for the fallen of the Empire.
The movie to watch is THE GLADIATOR, it is about the Ancient Rome, battle, love and lust, revenge and of course the adventure of the lifestyle of the Ancient Romanians.
