Work

The Huns came from the steppes of Mongolia.
They took over most of east Europe.
The Visigoths were a German Tribe that took over Rome

Did I do well?

The quiz was much different today. It was on pure knowledge of the subject. I thought it would be to hard and I was right and no right at the same time. I liked the first question and I can't believe that someone would get the first question wrong! There were only 1 or 2 questions that I could not remember but other than that the test went pretty smoothly. My hand was so tired and was about to fall off, probably because I am not writing that much any more so my hand is out of shape.

Questions

Who had the worst persecution of Christians ever? Diocletian
Who was the first Roman Emperor that was Christian? Constantinople
When was Diocletian's reform? 284 A.D.
When was the first Christian books spread? 300 A.D.

Notes on the boring presentation

Diocletian persecution has the worst persecution of Christians ever.
He burned the churches, all books were burned, they weren't letting any worship and people that were Christians lost their jobs. All bishops and priests were arrested. If any clergyman wanted to be freed, they would have to make a sacrifice to the Roman Gods. All men, women and children had to make a sacrifice to be executed. Constantine built up an army to make a way for Christianity. He built a big capital called Constantinople after him.

Struggles With Rome

In the third century.
Bad diseases spread through the empire.
To hard to fight against the barbarians.
Emperors lost power.
It cost lots of money for a great army.
Lots of poverty.

Diocletian's reform in 284
Increased army.
Divide Rome into smaller provinces.
Now there were 20,000 officials which was 2,000 more officials than under Augustus.

300 AD
60 million people in the Roman Empire.
Several millions are Christians.

Diocletian left Christians alone at first however, he then started to kill them.
Constantine ruled as the emperor from 306-337 AD.

Diocletian  had clergy and other members of faith put in arenas and let lions lose on them.  After there death they would be known as martyrs.   Crucifixion was no longer an option for torture.  Diocletian said that they would be a sacrifice to the gods, for believing in only one God.

Constantine converted to Christianity.
He became the patron for the faith.
Lots of places to pray were built.
Then the Romans had some more Christian government officials and laws came into place.
Crucifixion was illegal to Christians now.
In 331, 50 Christian books came and those were the first spread of the bible.

Civil War

There were a lot of Tiberius supporters but the senate and Octavian turned some of those people in believing that he is a bad person but he was really not. The senate were on him. He was beaten to death because the senate thought that he would become king. His mother was very hard on him and she said that no even her worst enemy had given her that many problems.

What was wrong with Rome,

The soldiers/ farmers lost there land and farms when they returned to Italy and they had low status. The rich bought them out.

War profiteers bounded and traded so they could make big plantations

War profiteers used wealth to buy farms

Then they would make food to eat and sell. 

The Plan

The people were resettled on land that were unused.

Food was given to the poor

The number of farmers would grow.

Carthage

I have no idea why the Romans would burn Carthage because they could make more money with the land they got. How did they burn the land so fast? All of that in 3 months? They must have a huge hate for the people of Carthage. I would live on that land forever! I like the movie because of the acting is pretty good and the characters have a good story behind them. I am looking forward to the rest of the video. I am finally one happy camper.
