World History in a Nutshell

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

"Okay," began Daniel, standing at the front of the class. "Today, we're going to be looking at the Romans. Or rather, we're going to be discussing them.

There's a handout on your desks.

We're going to be considering a remark made by Napoleon. He said that, "the story of Rome is the story of the world." What do you think he meant by this? How is it that the "western world grew up in Rome's shadow?"

After this discussion was over, he waved at the computers.

"Today's game is Death in Rome. Have fun!"

Chad could tell easily that it was a disease, and chose malaria, as that was the only choice of disease, but, apparantly, he didn't get the game very well because one of his exhibits were wrong? And he didn't investigate enough? What more was there to investigate after you knew the dog wasn't poisoned from eating the food and it couldn't have been the slave because the slave would have stolen the money...

...or maybe the slave didn't steal the money, because that would have been too suspicious! Ah-ha! Chad went back and played the game again.
