What do you think about the importance of Latin and Greek languages in the Roman empire? |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :"Greek East" and "Latin West” are the terms that are used to distinguish between the two parts of the Greco-Roman world, especially the eastern regions where Greek was the lingua franca, and the western parts where Latin filled this role. During the Roman empire a division had persisted between Latin and Greek speaking areas. This division was encouraged by administrative changes in the empire.s structure between the third and fifth <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/centuries-912381" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CENTURIES">CENTURIES</a>, which led ultimately to the establishment of separate Eastern and Western Roman empires.<br/> Latin and Greek were the dominant languages of the Roman empire. The language of the ancient Romans was Latin, which served as the "language of power". Latin was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/omnipresent-583563" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OMNIPRESENT">OMNIPRESENT</a> in the Roman empire as the language of the law courts in the West, and of the military everywhere. A great <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/number-582134" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NUMBER">NUMBER</a> of Roman citizens would have lacked Latin, though they were expected to acquire at least token knowledge, and Latin remained a marker of “Romanness”. <br/>Greek had become a shared language around the Eastern <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/mediterranean-547474" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MEDITERRANEAN">MEDITERRANEAN</a> and into Asia Minor as a consequence of the conquests of <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/alexander-371143" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALEXANDER">ALEXANDER</a> the Great. The "linguistic frontier" dividing the Latin West and the Greek East passed through the Balkan peninsula. Educated Romans, particularly those of the ruling elite, studied and often achieved a high degree of fluency in Greek, which was useful for diplomatic communications in the East even beyond the borders of the empire. The use of Greek at international level was one condition that enabled the spread of Christianity, as indicated for example by the choice of Greek. With the dissolution of the empire in the West, Greek became the dominant language of the Eastern Roman empire.</body></html> | |

What were relative advantages of canal and railway transportation? |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :Advantages of Canal Transportation <br/> (i) Canals were mainly built to transport coal to cities. The bulk and weight of coal made its transport by road much slower and expensive than by barges on canals. Coal was mainly used for heating and lighting homes in cities. The demand for coal grew constantly. The first English canal was made by James Bindley in 1761. It was known as Worsely canal. Its main purpose was to carry coal from the coal deposits at Worsely (near Manchester) to that city, after the canal was completed. <br/> (ii) Canals were usually built by big landowners. The confluence of canals created marketing centres in new towns. For example, the city of Birmingham owed its growth to its position at the heart of a canal system connecting London, the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/bristol-402288" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BRISTOL">BRISTOL</a> Channel, and the Mersey and Humber rivers. Between 1760 to 1790, 25 projects of canal building began. The period between 1788 ot 1796 is known as canal mania. In it, there were <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/another-876628" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ANOTHER">ANOTHER</a> 46 new projects and over the next 60 years more than 4,000 miles of canal were built. <br/> Advantages of Railway Transportation <br/> (i) Railways emerged as a new means of transportation available throughout the year. It was both cheap and fast, to carry passengers and goods. <br/> (ii) In the second stage, the invention of the railways tooks the entire process of industrialisation. In <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/1801-279740" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 1801">1801</a>, Richard Trevithick had devised an engine called the .Puffing Devil.. In 1814, the railway engineer George Stephenson invented a lomocotive called .The Blutcher.. It could pull a weight of 30 tonnes upto a hill at 4 mph. The first railway line connected the cities of Stockton and Darlington in 1825. The distance between the two cities was just nine miles which could be covered in <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2-283658" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2">2</a> hours at the speed of 24 <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/kph-2774983" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about KPH">KPH</a>.</body></html> | |

Explain the system of administration governed by politicians of senatorial rank in Rome. |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :In ancient Rome, provinces were generally governed by politicians of senatorial rank, usually former consuls. A later exception was the province of Egypt, incorporated by Augustus. After the death of Cleopatra it was ruled by a governor of equestrian rank only, perhaps as a discouragement to senatorial ambition as Egypt was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/considered-7257760" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONSIDERED">CONSIDERED</a> Augustus.s personal property, following the tradition of earlier, hellenistic kings. <br/> The territory of people who were defeated in war might be brought under various forms of treaty, in some cases entailing complete subjection. The formal annexation of a territory created a “province” in the modern sense of an administrative unit that was geographically defined. Republican provinces were administered in one-<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/year-1464599" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about YEAR">YEAR</a> <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/term-1241851" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TERM">TERM</a> by the consuls and praetors who had held office the previous year. <br/> Rome started expanding beyond Italy during the First Punic War. The first permanent provinces to be annexed were Sicily in 241 BC and Sardinia in 237 BC. Military expansionism kept increasing the number of these administrative provinces, until there were no longer enough qualified individuals to fill the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/posts-25660" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about POSTS">POSTS</a>. <br/> The terms of <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/provincial-592999" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROVINCIAL">PROVINCIAL</a> governors often had to be extended for multiple years, and on occasion the Senate awarded imperium even to private citizens, most notably Pompey The Great. Prorogation undermined the republican constitutional principle of annual elected magistracies, and the amassing of disproportionate wealth and military power by a few men through their provincial commands was a major factor in the transition from a republic to imperial autocracy.</body></html> | |
