Democracy- Votes on important decisions
Republic- Votes on the leaders.
The United States of America is a republic! Gravitas is the virtues of discipline, strength, and loyalty. In Rome, the father of the family had the power to kill his own children. He had complete control over the household. Togas were basically what everyone wore. Patritian were upper class families and had special priviledged. Plebians were kind of like middle class. The legion was Rome's massive military unit. It was 4,000- 6,000 men. The legion was much better than the phalanx. A century was a subgroup for the legion. This made it easier for the Legion to move it around. Women were very respected. They could help their husbands make political decisions. She could also own property and testify in court. Men had to join the military. It was considered an honor.
