How did religion impact Roman Empire?

 Religion impacted Roman Empire by killing many people but still people success. By having Christianity as  a main religion. First it started with Jewish people that wanted to have monotheism, but Romans told them to practice polytheism. Usually it depends on their emperors.Some were softer and some were more harsh. Softer emperors let people worship a god that they believed but also worship their gods too.

Still Christian people wanted to practice monotheism. Soldiers and town people kept on killing them until Emperor Constatine came and let people worship any god they wanted to. Rome started to be become more peaceful than it was.

Why do government change.

                                    Why do government change?
Government started in ancient times and it still changing. I think it still changing because Emperors or a Pharaoh are all different. Some of them are really strong and powerful so they have strong laws. And because of that common people started to say their thoughts, that said something bad about government and usually they were killed.  


People wanted democracy and to be powerful too. They become so powerful that government had to give them something. For example in Rome government created assembly branch where poor people had rights. Today most countries have democracy. Only few countries have other forms of government.  


Government can be also good and caring about their country. Emperors are not that rough and wanted  
to live in peace. For example in ancient  Emperor Hadrian ordered not to conquer more land, but make it safer. So he ordered to built powerful walls between Rome and Britain.

HW

1) There are different kinds of natural disasters. Some are natural and some are human made. For example Earth quakes are natural. Also it happens almost every day in different countries. They are usually not too strong, but humans harming the Earth so it does stronger earthquakes.

2) I think it is really good because it helps understand what you are learning and has many details in it. Also it's fun for example make a poster or a video.

What role of the army.



I think army's role is to protect citizens of their country. Army can be really good but also harmful. It usually depends on country's leader. Some countries have powerful army and some have less powerful. Since almost everyone have democracy. They have army to keep their citizens from terrorist usually. Also we need army for people that are having natural disasters like an earthquake, army flies to the place to safe people. That was my opinion about what is role of the army.
