The Progression of the Roman Civilization

Founding of Rome Rome was established around 753 BCE by Latin people. Located near the Tiber river, first villages on hills Main part of Rome built around area between Palatine and Capitoline hill, called Forum (center and economic hub of Rome) Legend says that Rome was founded by two brothers named Romulus and Remus, raised by a she-wolf

Roman Culture Roman culture borrowed a lot from Greek culture: religion, customs, style Also influenced greatly by Etruscans Religion: polytheistic Romans wore tunics, color depending on age Educated at home Very hygienic, bathed at least once a day at the public bath Roman military: called “Roman Legion”, consisting of around men

Growth of Christianity in Rome Slowly spread to Rome Appealed to slaves, people of low status (gentler and more forgiving religion, “forgive thy neighbor”) Not well received in Rome, Christians didn’t worship emperor as “god” Christians punished severely, therefore, Christians went undercover— blended their holidays with the original pagan ones Finally accepted by Roman emperor, Constantine, AD Flavius Theodosius, in 380, made Christianity official religion of Rome Nicene Creed LATE.HTM ad-christianity.php

The Roman Monarchy had: A Kingship An assembly (composed of male citizens) A Senate (composed of elders) Overthrown by Lucius Junius Brutus. The Monarchy, BCE

Ancus Marcus/Martius, 4 th King of Rome Wise Due to attack from the Latins, he destroyed their city and led the survivors back to Rome, increasing population Built a bridge across the Tiber river Built the chief port of Rome, Ostia

Tarquinius Priscus, 5 th King An Etruscan, became king after Ancus’ death. Gained more territory for Rome Built Circus Maximus, largest stadium in Rome Tarquins became ruling family until one son raped a noblewoman named Lucretia, therefore causing: The revolt/republic, led by Junius Brutus

Achievements of Monarchy Establishment of first Roman government Gained more territory for Rome Many architectural achievements: the first bridge over Tiber (the Sublician Bridge), city walls (the Servian Wall)

The Roman Republic BCE Ruled by: The assembly The Senate The two Consuls (two patricians, elected, ruled for one year) (consuls had to act as unit, couldn’t make solo decisions) Patricians/Plebeians (fighting for control over Rome, couldn’t intermarry): Patricians: aristocrats, wealthy landowners, Plebeians: working class, farmers. Eventually overthrown due to political instability

Lucius Junius Brutus First consul Dismissed Etruscans from ruling Established republic Supposedly killed sons after they tried to bring Etruscans back to power Ancestor of Marcus Junius Brutus, one of the assassinators of Julius Caeser

Gaius Licinius Stolo BCE Passed Lex Licinia Sextia, which: Restored consulship Required a plebeian consul seat Regulated debts Limited how much land one can own. He broke this law, and had to pay a fine.

Julius Caesar Born as patrician 59 BCE appointed consul Conquered Gaul (58-50 BCE) Won the Civil War (49-44 BCE), begun by Caesar and Pompey the Great over control of Rome Wanted to be consul for life (i.e, emperor) Killed by Marcus Junius Brutus and 60 other senators, at the Ides of March

Achievements of Republic Established basis of form of government that is still used today Twelve Tables: earliest Roman code of law/piece of literature Due to victory of Punic Wars, (3 wars between Rome and Carthage, BCE) Rome was dominant Mediterranean power

Roman Empire Ruled by an Emperor, autocratic Controlled around 5-6 million kilometers Influenced a lot of different cultures Split into two by emperor Diocletion: Latins to the west and Greeks to the east Eastern Empire destroyed by Germanic ruler of Italy, Odoaver, who seized control and ruled as a client Byzantine Empire, after the Byzantine-Ottoman Wars, was greatly weakened, and was ended after the Fall of Constantinople, the heart of the empire l

Augustus Octavion Caesar 63 BCE-14 AD Grandnephew of Julius Caesar Pax Romana-established peace in Rome, lasted 200 years Split Rome into two between himself and Mark Antony: Caeser, the west, and Antony, the East (called the Treaty of Brundisuim) Treaty collapsed when Antony cheated on Octavion’s sister, therefore Octavion is sole emperor Pretended to restore republic by surrendering power to Senate, 27 BCE, continually reelected consul Offered consular power for life, 19 BCE Then, in 2 BCE, he was Pater Patriae, father of the country empire.net/emperors/augustus.html

Marcus Aurelius, AD Considered last of the “five good emperors” Stoic philosopher (believed in souls) Wrote the book “Meditations” Was adopted by last emperor, so that he would be successor

Achievements of Empire -rome-2.jpg First aqueducts built, 312 BCE Coliseum, largest building of era AD Vast system of roads, allowed trade, easier movement of armies, and communication
