History Ancient Empire

O Império Romano está no centro das atenções há séculos. Foi estudado, pesquisado e ensinado em escolas de todo o mundo. Invenções, palavras, vocabulário e filosofia foram derivados dessas importantes transições na história da humanidade. Os romanos eram cruéis em alguns aspectos, mas civilizados em outros. Eles eram um povo peculiar que fazia as coisas de maneira diferente daquelas que chamavam de bárbaros. Sua guerra, seus hábitos, sua visão do futuro...tudo isso fez do império o que se tornou.

The Inca empire was vast and massive. Yet, still so few people know much about it, aside from what they've heard from vague rumors. But did you know the Inca people showed various similarities to those who came from the Middle East? Did you know that they mummified their dead and built pyramids? Infamous among the historical stories from the Spanish invaders are the evidence of human sacrifice and their polytheistic views on nature and life.

As the Canaanites established themselves in most of the Levant and the Hurrians carved out space for themselves in northwestern Syria, a West Semitic ethnic group known as the Amorites entered Mesopotamia and Syria from the Arabian Desert. The movement of the Amorites and Hurrians coincided with the collapse of the Ur III Dynasty after 2004 BCE (Haywood 2005, 28), although it is not known for sure if the collapse of Ur III led to the movement of peoples, or if the movement at least partially led to the collapse.

Lying in the middle of a plain in modern day Iran is a forgotten ancient city: Persepolis. Built 2,500 years ago, it was known in its day as the richest city under the sun. Persepolis was the capital of Achaemenid Persian Empire, the largest empire the world had ever seen, but after its destruction, it was largely forgotten for nearly 2,000 years, and the lives and achievements of those who built it were almost entirely erased from history.

The Greek general and king, Alexander the Great, is a name you might have heard before. Although his historical journey varies greatly from the stories and rumors about him, he did accomplish many victories in Asia and Europe in his conquest to rule the world. In this guide, we will go over his appearance, his character, his many battles, his clever military strategies, and the regions he conquered. His vast empire stretched farther than much else had before his time. But eventually, it became divided, and the throne was being fought over.

Some of the most iconic symbols of the Roman Empire that have survived into the modern world today are the arches that Romans erected to commemorate military victories and glorify individual emperors. The story of how arches came to be used throughout the Roman world in such a way is one that involves the evolution of the military and its leaders into the political forces that came to dominate the state. Those arches, along with the triumphs that came to be associated with many of them, were key parts in the process of exhibiting the might of both Rome.

Assyria, frequently referred to as the Assyrian Empire, was a Mesopotamian kingdom and empire in the Ancient Near East that lasted from maybe the 25th century BC (in the form of the Assur city-state till its collapse between 612 BC and 605 BC, covering the Early to Middle Bronze Age to the Late Iron Age). Assyria was a Semitic-speaking kingdom based upon the Tigris River in Upper Mesopotamia, an area that included Northern Iraq, Northeast Syria, and Southeast Turkey, and also fringe parts of Northwest Iran in modern-day terms.

Rome's complex relationship with animals goes right back to its foundation myth, and even today, the wolf remains a symbol of the Eternal City, forming part of the logo for the capital's football team, A.S. Roma. According to tradition, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus, who, with his brother Remus, was nursed and sheltered by a she-wolf. A detailed analysis of Roman attitudes toward animals reveals a great deal of information about Roman society in general, particularly its sense of morality and ethics.

Civilizations all over the earth share architecture, building methods and materials, knowledge of astronomy, layout of cities, and even worship the same gods and goddesses by various names. Human civilization began as unified culture at Babel. Secular Humanism is incorrect with its belief that these people were incapable of advanced technology. Believers in ancient astronauts are closer to the truth, but the Scriptures unmask these creatures as unclean spirits or demons, not friendly, helpful visitors from other planets. Secular Humanists acknowledge the problems with the conventional ...

Don't think that because it is such a small country with only about 17 million people, it should be neglected. The Netherlands has a long history, with a high influence on our cultures, trading routes, the stock market, business, and art. The Dutch were all over the world. They "owned" and colonized a big portion of what was then the known world. They were among the first settlers, had the biggest haven, and biggest fleet for some time. The Dutch East-Indian Trading Company, or VOC, is probably the biggest or at least one of the biggest companies that has ever existed.

At one point in antiquity, the Achaemenid Persian Empire was the largest empire the world had ever seen, but aside from its role in the Greco-Persian Wars and its collapse at the hands of Alexander the Great, it has been mostly overlooked. When it has been studied, the historical sources have mostly been Greek, the very people the Persians sought to conquer. Needless to say, their versions were biased.

The Dawn of Civilization: An Exploration of the Greek Empire delves into the roots and evolution of this compelling civilization, charting its rise, zenith, and ultimate demise, while examining the indelible marks it has left on the annals of human history.

Over the last 2,000 years, ambitious men have dreamed of forging vast empires and attaining eternal glory in battle, but of all the conquerors who took steps toward such dreams, none were ever as successful as antiquity’s first great conqueror. Leaders of the 20th century hoped to rival Napoleon’s accomplishments, while Napoleon aimed to emulate the accomplishments of Julius Caesar. But Caesar himself found inspiration in Alexander the Great (356 - 323 BCE), the Macedonian king who managed to stretch an empire from Greece to the Himalayas in Asia by the age of 30.

L'Empire romain est à l'honneur depuis des siècles. Il a été étudié, recherché et enseigné dans les écoles du monde entier. Les inventions, les mots, le vocabulaire et la philosophie ont été dérivés de ces transitions importantes dans l'histoire humaine. Les Romains étaient impitoyables à certains égards et civilisés à d'autres. C'était un peuple particulier qui faisait les choses différemment de ceux qu'ils appelaient des barbares. Leur guerre, leurs habitudes, leur vision de l'avenir...tous ont fait de leur empire ce qu'il est devenu.

>Dangerous Days in the Roman Empire is the first in a new adult series by Terry Deary, the author of the hugely best-selling Horrible Histories, popular among children for their disgusting details, gory information and sharp wit, and among adults for engaging children (and themselves) with history. The Romans have long been held up as one of the first 'civilised' societies, and yet in fact they were capable of immense cruelty. Not only that, but they made the killing of humans into a sport.

In the third century CE, as Roman leaders vied with each other for power and constantly fought civil wars, Rome’s famous roads fell into disrepair, the economy was crippled, the continent-wide trade system that had flourished in the previous years was replaced with a basic barter system, and there was a reduction in international trade. People became ever more fearful for their personal safety, and the imperial crisis saw an increasing trend toward sacrificing personal liberties and rights in return for guarantees of safety from wealthy landowners.

Imperial Tragedy tells the story of Rome's gradual collapse. Full of palace intrigue, religious conflicts and military history, as well as details of the shifts in social, religious and political structures, Imperial Tragedy contests the idea that Rome fell due to external invasions.

"Die Geschichte der Römer erstreckt sich von ca. 750 v. Chr. bis in die 'Römische Kaiserzeit“. Sie endet mit dem Untergang des Römischen Reichs ca. 400 n. Chr., als Konstantinopel sich als Gegenmacht zur Vorherrschaft Roms entwickelt. Germanen und Goten erobern die Metropole, später fallen noch die Vandalen ein. Von ihrer zerstörerischen Aktivität leitet sich der heutige Begriff "Vandalismus“ her. In den 12 Jahrhunderten des Römischen Reichs gab es eine Zeit der königlichen und eine der kaiserlichen Macht....
