With the defeat of the Persians by Alexander and the eventual decline of the Greek Civilization, power would eventually shift west towards the Italian peninsula b. The Romans would build an amazing empire filled with many different cultures and help spawn a brand new religion: Christianity

2 Geography & Early Republic 2. Origins of Rome a. Legend says that twins Romulus and Remus were abandoned on the Tiber River and raised by a she-wolf b. Later the two boys decided to build a city c. Eventually Romulus kills Remus & city of Rome is named after Romulus

7

8 Geography & Early Republic 5. Early Rome a. Early Etruscan kings and successors built temples and public centers in Rome b. The Forum was the heart of the Roman political life c. After Rome s last king was driven from power in 509 B.C for being too harsh, the Romans declared they would never again be ruled by a king d. Instead they established a republic, which meant public affairs e. A republic is a form of government in which power rests with citizens who have the right to vote for their leaders f. In Rome, citizenship with voting rights was granted only to free-born male citizens

9 The Roman Forum

10 Roman Forum Ruins

11 Geography & Early Republic 6. People of Rome a. Rome was divided up into several different groups who struggled for power b. Patricians: wealthy landowners who held most of the power c. Plebeians: the common farmers, artisans, and merchants; majority of pop.

12 Geography & Early Republic d. Tribunes: elected representatives who protected the rights of the plebeians from patrician officials

13 Geography & Early Republic e. Consuls: two officials with limited power and one year terms; one controlled the army the other directed the government f. Dictator: in times of crisis, the republic could appoint a leader with absolute power to make laws and control the army; power lasted for 6 months g. Legions: military units made up of 5,000 soldiers

14

15 Geography & Early Republic 7. Roman Power Expands a. Steadily the Romans conquered the Italian Peninsula b. As Rome conquered lands, people were absorbed into their ever growing territory c. Some people were accepted as citizens, others simply became allies d. Rome went to war against Carthage; a powerful city in North Africa e. The struggle became known as the Punic Wars ( B.C.)

16 The Punic Wars

17 Geography & Early Republic f. Carthage was led by a brilliant general named Hannibal g. Hannibal assembled an army of 50,000 infantry, 9,000 cavalry, and 60 elephants intent on capturing Rome h. He led his troops up through Spain and crossed the Alps into Italy

18 Punic Wars

19 Roman Legions all male citizens who owned land required to serve in army legion: group of 6000 men well-trained, disciplined treated conquered people pretty well

20 1 st Punic War Carthage compete w/ Rome for trade, control Carthage=strong navy, Rome=has to build one Rome wins, gains Sicily

21

22 2 nd Punic War Hannibal General from Carthage attacked Rome by land (with elephants!) defeated by Scipio

23

24

25

26 3 rd Punic War Romans=50 years of peace Carthago delenda est Cathage must be destroyed! Romans attack AND burn Carthage, enslave people Rome now Controls the Mediterranean

27 Problems in the Republic Provinces complain of corrupt officials Wealthy Romans take land from small farmers Slaves used on big farms (latifundia). pushes small farmers/workers into cities

28 Problems in the Republic The Gap between rich and poor widens (_), The poor revolt Slaves revolt too BC Spartacus led 70,000 slaves

29

30

31 Reform Attempts 2 Brothers try to help Tiberius Gracchus Wanted to redistribute (give back) land to the poor BUT, he was killed by senate Gaius Gracchus Same reforms, same fate

32 The Army Changes paid, equipped soldiers (mercenaries) gave land to veterans This is the beginning of a professional fighting force soldiers become more loyal to generals than republic!!!!

33 RECAP OF THE PROBLEMS IN THE ROME REPUBLIC

34 Problems for the Roman Republic Rome s expansion brought wealth, and problems gap b/t rich & poor Inflation cost of goods rise Large farms and slave labor = small farms out of biz Armies loyal to generals Generals had more power than senate Leads to civil wars in Rome

35 Biggest Problem: The Generals The most powerful politicians (Patricians) are also the powerful generals They recruited and paid their soldiers (the poor) Armies loyal to the general, not the Republic

36 Julius Caesar Brilliant general Conquered Gaul (France) for Rome Fought with his men, they were dedicated to him

37 First Triumvirate Caesar, Crassus and Pompey leader of Republic as the First Triumvirate The Senate worried that Caesar was getting too powerful Orders ceasar to return to Rome and break up army Caesar Pompey Crassus

38 Crossing the Rubicon Nope! Ceasar took his army across the Rubicon River, and into Rome 5 yrs of Civil War wins Took power=dictator for life..absolute power

39 Caesar s Reforms Expanded citizenship to provinces Created jobs by building government buildings Increased soldiers pay Very popular with the people

40 Caesar Assassinated The Roman senate worried about Caesar again considered him a tyrant Several Senators, Marcus Brutus and Gaius Cassius, assassinated him by stabbing (Ides of March) The Ides of March. 15 March, marked by several religious observances

41 In 44 B.C., Senators assassinated Julius Caesar

42 End of the Republic & Rise of the Empire Caesar s death changed Rome: People no longer trusted the Senate to rule Rome & the Roman Republic came to an end & the empire began

43

44

45 The assassination led to another civil war led by Caesar s adopted nephew Octavian & his best general, Marc Antony

46 Second Triumvirate Octavian, Lepidus and Marc Antony take control of ROME Octavian strongest of the 3, defeats Antony and Egyptian ally Cleopatra. Put Lepidus into exile.

47 Caesar s adopted son Very smart politician Caesar s assassinated, Rome civil war. Octavian wins Octavian

48 First Emperor Augustus defeats Antony, Rome s first emperor Maintained control of the army Senate had little real power

49 Further expansion

50 The Rise of the Roman Empire Octavian leader of Rome, given the title Augustus ( Exalted One ), & became Rome s first emperor Under Augustus, Rome was ruled as an empire; absolute rule senate no power

51 The Pax Romana Augustus 41 year reign started a 207-year era of peace, wealth, & expansion known as the Pax Romana ( the Roman Peace ) from 27 B.C. to 180 A.D. Pax Romana

52 Pax romana Roman Peace 27 BC- 180 AD Expansion and solidification of Roman Empire Afforded safety and leisure time inside the empire Some people talk about a Pax Americana since World War II

53 During the Pax Romana, the empire expanded to its height & brought great wealth to Rome

54 Lyon France London Africa

55 Political Impacts of pax romana Uniform rule of law Developed civil service Expanded control of Europe and Mediterranean world

56 Economic impacts of Pax Romana Uniform system of money/currency Trade inside the empire flourished Trade with India and China

57 Roman roads Romans build a network roads Good for: Trade Travel Moving armies around Communicating with provinces

58 The Pax Romana became the golden age of Rome as emperors like Augustus built roads & a merit-based bureaucracy to rule the empire Roman aqueducts brought water to cities

59 Roman architects used new styles like domes & concrete to beautify cities

60 Emperors built arenas & used chariot races, gladiator events, & theater to entertain the poor The Roman Coliseum

61

62 Gladiators To control the masses in Rome, colosseum

63

64

65

66 Conclusions Rome started out as a city, to a republic, to an empire The era of the Roman Republic introduced representative democracy The era of Pax Romana & the golden age of Roman innovation & culture
