This paper will compare and contrast the military, government, and the daily life between Ancient Rome, and the Mongolian Empire.
MILITARY
The first part between this comparison of militaries will be the military of Rome. The Roman Legion was a military unit of 5,000 soldiers that was supported by cavalry. They were a big factor in the rise of the Roman Empire. The military of Rome was only open for male citizens that lived in the country. The military also tried to keep their focus on teamwork, and not individual power, unlike other countries did. The next part of this comparison is the military from the Mongolian Empire, headed by Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan used his mind to make up strategies to use against his opponents. Some of his tactics were to terrorize his opponents by using brutality. He conquered areas all the way from Poland to China. The warriors in the Mongolian military were basically superior in skill at fighting than the skill that the rest of the militaries that they fought had. These militaries were similar because they both played a great deal in the rise of their empires. Government This part of the comparing and contrasting will be comparing the governments of Rome and the Mongolians. This part will start with the Romans. Early Rome started off their government as a republic. Three different groups all wanted power in Rome. There were the Patricians, the Plebeians, and the Tribunes. The Patricians were the wealthy people who owned lots of land and had lots of power. The Plebeians were the farmers, artisans, and merchants. They could vote, but they couldn’t rule in the republic. The Tribunes were the ones that elected the representatives that could protect the Plebeians rights. Julius Caesar was elected as a consul in the year 59 BC. He ruled and then named himself the dictator for the rest of his life in 44 BC. He created jobs for the poorer people and granted more citizenships. After Caesar’s death, there was a fight for power. Octavian accepted the “Augustus” title and set up a long lasting system of having just a single ruler. The Mongolians government during the time of Genghis Khan was a democracy. There was a “Council of Leaders” that were to make decisions. They also appointed “Civil Services” which only mattered on caliber rather than the race or nationality. There was also an appointed messaging system of people who could get messages sent and delivered …show more content…
These 12 tablets ended up being what the law was based off of. To be able to be a citizen, you had to be an adult male that owned land. When Julius Caesar became the consul, he created more jobs for the poor people, and also had citizenship more available for the people. Then, when Augustus Caesar became the ruler, he set up civil service and made Rome look better to the eye. The agriculture of Rome was the most important part of their civilization. The coin of Rome, the Denarius, made trade among the people easier. Romans worshiped Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva and also worshiped the emperor. The rich people in the society lived very well and in good conditions, while the poor on the other hand; they lived in worse conditions, and had to receive grain from the
