Rome compared to today
Alike:
· Military prowess can lead to political rise
· The rich have more power in society
· Religious tolerance was an issue for different religious faiths
· Coin was used for the economy alike ours
· Food seemed like ours
· Diverse cultures under one banner
Unlike:
· Romans had a republic at first based off of 2 consuls where we have on president.
· Romans believed in slavery
· Required military service for citizenship of the family
· Riches elevated your political status easily
