Introduction to World History to 1600 (Terran)
Monday 1:00-3:00 pm

Seimei moved fluidly, albeit a bit slower than usual as he entered the class. He sank to the floor amid his pillows and composed the in-class discussion question.

Displaying his customary scroll across the front of the class:

Discussion question –

What was considered the center of Roman civilization?

“Also, an announcement,” Seimei’s baritone voice rang clearly through the classroom. “Due next Monday, September 26 is a longer written assignment to discuss the following question.”

He rolled out a secondary scroll.

Examine Roman history and analyze the effect the Roman expansion and empire had on Rome from 509 BC to 180 AD.

“No negotiations on due date.”

((ooc: edited to add)) “Please drop by the roster page to verify your name is on the roll for the correct class. I will be keeping stricter tally of who shows up in class and who does not.”

Phoebe slips into class a little late. She takes up a desk in the back corner and starts writing out the questions.

1) What was considered the center of Roman civilization?

---The center of Roman civilization was their religion. It figured into every aspect of their life, no matter how small. The Romans had a very close relationship with their beliefs.


2) Examine Roman history and analyze the effect the Roman expansion and empire had on Rome from 509 BC to 180 AD.

She would have to think on this one a little bit more.
