From the commencement of Henry VII’s reign, it was vital that Henry established his dynasty, by securing his position on the throne, and one interpretation shown in Source 2 is that Henry’s control over finance proved a great aid in not only gaining financial power, but in gaining political power. However some historians have come to refer to Henry as the ‘miserly’ king due to his expenditure, as shown in Source 1, which, when analysing this source can be viewed as an unrepresentative and unconvincing interpretation. Firstly, Source 1 creates the image of Henry’s attitude towards finance being miserly, through both the picture and the provenance, with the idea of Henry VII building a lavish chapel. This is shown through the visual representation
Roman influences are visible all around us today. One of the most important lessons that our culture has taken from ancient Roman would be our roadways. Romans were the first to use roads that gave our society the formula for construction that allowed rainwater to drain off. They used numbered signposts every Roman mile, which indicated such things as the distance to the next town and which construction team had built the road.
Just like their language, Rome’s law spread throughout the empire. Their law code was known as the twelve tables. So everyone could understand the law, they were clearly stated. To be a Roman citizen you must have lived in Italy but once they empire started growing many more people were allowed to be citizens. The Latin America and Europe countries base their law on the Roman system.
Rome started expanding with its eyes first set on Sicily unfortunately it was loyal to Carthage. This first clash seemed an inevitable failure for Rome, however they triumphed. This set the stage for future expansion, Rome’s thirst for trade goods was quite healthy after all they had to maintain their population
Conquest and Romanization of the Europe is considered to be one of the main achievements of Caesar in world history. The establishment of Roman power in Gaul and its Romanization really had a strong influence on the formation of European civilization, but it is impossible to exaggerate the role of the Caesar. Developed Rome absorbed the area, where the process of transition from the communal system to class had recently begun. Therefore, it was a natural process. The Roman conquest prevented Celtic civilization to develop independently, without the influence of Greco-Roman culture.

Thesis: The spread of Christianity in Rome during the first few centuries AD had a profound impact on the Roman Empire's social, political and religious landscape, as it provided a new sense of community and belonging, introduced a new moral code, and ultimately led to the fall of the Western Roman Empire. In recent years, there has been much debate among historians and scholars about the impact of the spread of Christianity in Rome during the first few centuries AD. Some argue that this event had a profound impact on the Roman Empire's social, political, and religious landscape, while others argue that its impact was relatively small.
How was Roman culture an example of cultural diffusion at its best? I believe the Roman culture was the best example of cultural diffusion because of the massive amount of people going in and out of the country. Without this amount of people entering and exiting the country there would no diffusion. In other words, without anyone leaving and entering the country there would be no way for these traits and ideas of the Roman society to spread across the rest of the world. With all countries diffusion is very important.
This rapid expansion was due to the constant conquering of land to support the economic structure of the Roman Empire. This is significant because the political changes that are made by leaders are implemented into society very quickly. The Roman Empire’s spread across a large portion of Europe and parts of Asia minor, it was a place of sanctuary for the citizens until the political situation allowed for the empire to split into two. One being the western empire that would later fall in 476AD while the eastern empire would go on being the Byzantine Empire lasting for hundreds of years. Lack of Control over the Western division of the Roman Empire due to Barbarian Invasions Barbarians (germanium tribes) developed feudalism based on two major traditions.
While the Roman Empire stood, it lived as one of the strongest and most remarkable time civilizations in world history. Its effects on the world led up to today, from the way the United States and many other countries conducted trade and their government, to literature and romance languages. French, English, Italian, German, and Spanish are all languages derived from the Roman language, Latin. The Romans flourished as an empire from 31 BCE to 476 CE, and they had just as much of an effect on the world in its peak as it did during its downfall and after. Europe and Rome’s trade partners suffered a shock when Rome fell, but overall, Rome falling affected the world positively (Markel 125).
The Latin language got more acceptances over a wide area than the Egyptian language and is still used in some Roman churches and scientific
Rome expanded quickly, they were able to conquer Greece, Italy, Asia Minor, Spain, and Africa. After Rome took control of each nation, they would instill stimulations for them to live; this generally consisted of paying tribute, and providing soldiers for their military. There were a range of futures for those in the conquered nations; some were able to become Roman citizens, while other had a less fortunate. There were some negative effects of the expansion of Rome.
Henry Bradley, in his work The Legacy of Rome, states that “...Over the greater part of Western Europe the subject peoples learned to speak the language of their conquerors and forget their native tongues, so that at present day what was once the local dialect of (Rome) is … spoken… by half the nations of the civilized world.” This quote shows how Rome, by conquering the Mediterranean and assimilating the people into its own culture,
Due to the expansion, it was hard for the rulers and government officials to communicate and protect the Empire. Therefore Romans ruled over more land than they could manage. The Roman Empire was stretched across Europe, much of middle East, and the north coast of Africa. It surrounded the Mediterranean. Since all those places came under the Roman Empire, the rulers had to protect
As the Roman Empire expanded, so did their language. The Vatican is the only nation that currently recognizes Latin as an official Language, but many languages have Roman roots. Languages that have a majority of Latin influence are called Romance Languages, due to their influence
