13 Rome at its Height AD
14 Pax Romana Pax Romana, Latin for "the Roman peace", is the long period of peace experienced by states within the Roman Empire. The term stems from the fact that Roman rule and its legal system pacified regions which had suffered from the quarrels between rival leaders, sometimes forcefully. During this time Rome still fought a number of wars against neighboring states and tribes, most notably the Germanic tribes and Parthia. It was an era of relative tranquility, in which Rome endured neither major civil wars, such as the perpetual bloodshed of the first century BC, nor serious invasions. Characterized by rule by emperors and a lack of democracy. Strong military presence.
15 The Roman Achievement Roman Roads - As early as the 4th century BC, a good road system was recognized as vital for military deployment, communication and increasing commerce. By having an option to traveling around the peninsula or along the coast line of Italy, travelers and merchants could avoid some threat of storms, pirates and navigational problems. Well trained and extensive military. Because the military presence on Roman roads was so extensive, travel and trade were safer and much faster. Roman rule of law - An accused person is innocent until proven guilty.
16 The Roman Achievement
17 Aqueducts Roman water systems often carried water to cities from mountain streams hundreds of miles away. Only a highly organized civilization with advanced technology could create such a system. The Roman Achievement
18 The Roman Achievement Highly sophisticated public buildings and baths.
19 The Rise of Christianity Textbook - page Despite Roman persecution of the early Church, the Pax Romana and the extensive Roman transportation system allowed Christianity to spread throughout the Roman empire. The huge slave population made Christianity attractive to a wide section of the population. By 312 AD, Emperor Constantine had decreed Christianity the official religion of Rome. Jesus healing the blind man.

The Chinese Han Dynasty Emperor Wudi opened up a trade route, later called the Silk Road that linked China and the west for centuries. Click here for British Museum Silk Road exhibition website. Silk Road trade goods included silk, whose production secrets were carefully guarded by the Chinese, jade, and porcelain in return for glassware, linen, fabric and cedar wood.

30 Why did the west fall harder? More multiethnic Han Chinese a true nation that can endure beyond the dynasty. In Roman empire most live outside Italy.

31 Why did the western Roman empire fall and not the eastern? Deep, engrained civilization in the east Greeks and before East less impacted by nomadic invasion maybe because many enduring cities, large populations Tribes on eastern borders were disorganized and unmotivated After separation of empire, east no longer has to send any help to West Even with changing political structure, little threat to social, economic or cultural continuity No cities in the west German soldiers fill the ranks of Roman legions When west cut from wealth of East, the tax base dwindled
