The Roman Empire began in 509 BC, lasting 1,000 years, having many strengths in how it was ruled and operated. There were also many weakness, which resulted in its fall in 576 AD. The Roman Empire collapse was the cause of both internal and external factors, and even though Rome was the biggest Empire for years, it could not stop those factors. Rome had many strengths, and one big one was its army; consisting of thousands of men, Rome’s army conquered many neighboring lands, expanding its…
Under the Mongol Empire, Eurasia was unified. These cities no longer went to war against each other, and the Mongols mandated a policy of open trade(Skaff 3). Items from China and Southeastern Asia made it into Eastern Europe and the Middle East, and vice versa. The Mongols also maintained the roads needed to conduct this trade and used their army to protect the roads from bandits. The Silk Roads connected the world in a way that had never truly been done before. Italian merchants like Marco…

The Mongol Empire was the world's largest contiguous empire in history, stretching from the Pacific Ocean to Eastern Europe in the 13th and 14th centuries. Although emerging from the Mongolian steppes as uncivilized nomads lacking a basic government structure in 1206; the Mongols quickly adapted and developed an elaborate political structure to rule their vast empire. They were led by Temujin Khan, later renamed Genghis Khan, meaning “universal ruler” who amassed his following by uniting…
large part trade agreements. However, there is no guarantee that the current trend will continue. China is aggressively attempting to become a power that can rival America, and it will not be content with maintaining the US status quo. If Layne’s “Pax Americana” or exclusive American domination will indeed come to an end, international relations will decline. By consequence, military strength and national interests will once again take a higher priority, giving strength to the realist theory.…

Machiavelli and his ideas, while having provided the world with a foundation from which to build the concepts of political philosophy, have become largely irrelevant in modern society. Not only have they lost their benefit in today's day and age; but, they have also adopted negative consequences due to the way the world, and the political atmosphere, have evolved. The opinions which he put forth regarding neutrality, public opinion, and the presence of leaders within a nation have all served to…
Venetian lagoon. During this section of his journey, Mark has a prophetic vision of an angel. The angel, as a stand-in for Christ, proclaims to Mark, "Pax Tibi Marce Evangelista Meus, Hic requiescet corpus tuum,” or "Peace unto you Mark, My Evangelist, Here your body will rest" (Grasman 121). Originally, the first component of the angel's message (Pax Tibi Marce Evangelista Meus) did not stem from the instance of Mark in the lagoon, but actually arose from a story dating to the 4th century in…
