Accomplishments of the Romans

They must have done something right to get this big!

#1 – Greater Freedom for Women Early on, women had few rights Later, women given more protection under the law. Women could own property and businesses

What are they doing in this picture? #2 – Organized Military Soldiers served according to rank Legions = big fighting force Cohorts = small fighting force Only landowners were required to serve, starting at age 18 What are they doing in this picture?

#3 – Concrete Roads Highways built to unify distant parts of the empire By year 100AD, thousands of miles of concrete roads connected cities in the empire. This is an actual Roman road that still exists today.

#4– Aqueducts Aqueduct = a canal-like structure made out of concrete Pont du Gard, France Aqueduct = a canal-like structure made out of concrete Used to bring water to people from mountains miles away

#5 – Roman Republic and Voting Republic = a government where the people vote for leaders Got this and many other ideas from the Greeks. Leaders in government shared power, this emphasized equality

#6 – System of Laws Laws made to control the diverse people of the empire. Laws were later written down to create a “government of laws, not men.”
