Rome's Transition From Republic to Empire
[ send me this report ]
A 7 page paper discussing
why and how Rome shifted in structure from republic to empire. The factors contributing
to the shift were varied, but the single most limiting factor in Rome's ability to maintain
itself was the ultimate size of the area it controlled. It ruled most of the known world, at
least that part of the world of which its citizens wished to have any knowledge. Rome
appears to have set out to conquer any lands attractive to it, leaving all others for "the
barbarians," defined as any group not under Roman control. This determination to
dominate all desirable lands and peoples ultimately led to the demise of the Roman empire.
A better route would have been to create alliances with neighbors rather than insist on
controlling them. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Summary and Analysis of “The Laws” by Plato
[ send me this report ]
This is a 10 page paper summarizing and analyzing Plato’s “The Laws” on a chapter by chapter basis. Philosopher and educator Plato (427-347 B.C.E.) wrote extensively in general philosophy which he believed was the basis for the theory of education and political thought. Plato was greatly influenced by the philosophies of Socrates and in addition was critical about Athenian public life “which he presented as dominated by the rhetorical and poetical uses of language in the formation of policies and attitudes”. “The Laws” (360 B.C.E.) was Plato’s last and most extensive work and it reaffirms many of his arguments from previous works in regards to the practical politics of running a Republic. The central speaker is an “Athenian stranger” who gives “advice on the constitution of a proposed new city”.

The Battle of Actium (31 BC)
[ send me this report ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the Battle of Actium in 31 BC. The naval Battle of Actium in 31 BC was considered one of the “turning points” in ancient history as it resulted in the establishment of Rome’s first emperor, Augustus Caesar, previously known as Octavianus and the increased power of Rome over the wealthy north African nation of Egypt. The battle confirmed finally the position of Octavianus who previously had shared the control over the Roman lands with Mark Antony. Mark Antony’s alliance with Egypt’s Cleopatra VII however was not supported by those in Rome and Octavianus and the Senate were able to declare war on Cleopatra without creating the illusion of a civil war had he declared war on Mark Antony himself. The naval battle is not only important regarding the history of the Roman Empire but it is also unique in its comparisons to land battle strategies and the surprising turn of events when Cleopatra and Antony fled in the middle of the battle to leave the rest of their fleet to be destroyed.
Bibliography lists 5 sources.
