Rome Video

Today in class, we watched a video on Rome and it was about the battles the ancient Romans fought and their lifestyle. Rome's lifestyle was very different from other ancient groups such as Greece and Egypt. We already had units on those countries and what their center of life was like Egypt having the Nile River as the center. Rome had pretty evil kings in its time when people were ruled by kings and that was before they had a different form of government that they wanted to try. They never went back to having kings rule them, because they didn't like the way the kings would run things. So, they decided to have their own form of government and have ruling on their own terms. This changed everything and we even use their ancient form of government today. It is a little different though because it has evolved over the years. Rome changed the way we do things today.
