	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In “200 B.C. the Romans conquered the Greeks and began copying their art style”. The Romans then started depicting people as they truly were and created realistic statues.

	In Pompeii, many senators and other highly awarded officials gathered around the Bay of Naples in a culturally influenced region known as Campania, where they would reside for mainly the spring season because that is when they...]]></description>

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The eruption has destroyed Pompeii, Herculaneum, Oplonti, and Stabiae and has killed Pliny the Elder and many others. Pompeii has been completely leveled and the others are not much better off. It has been said by a civilian that "Before the eruption of 79, earthquakes&nbsp;occurred for some time, but were disregarded by local inhabitants because of their familiarity with the phenomenon."...]]></description>

	Roads

	&nbsp;

	“All roads lead to Rome”

	&nbsp;

	Within Italy, there are about 50,000 miles of roads. The primary use of these roads is to give a system of travel to the Roman army and to allow them to obtain food. In order to create the elaborate system of roads, Roman engineers are employed by the city. They use tools such as the groma to set out straight lines. The roads are set at a slight angle to allow any water or sewage runoff to simply drain off the streets. A...]]></description>

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pliny the Elder, Gaius Plinius Secundus, died last night after getting trapped in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. He was born around 23 AD in northern Italy around Gallia Transpadana. Due to the class of family he was born into, Pliny had the opportunity to study and gain an education. Part of this education was the study of rhetoric, the art of speech and speaking in public....]]></description>

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To this day making time for leisure activities has been an important part in every ones lives, always trying as far as their means would allow. Today there are now possibly as much as 10 percent of our towns that have been given up to sports and entertainment facilities such as, exercise grounds, theatres and public baths.

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The people of Pompeii believed in many Gods, and these Gods were supposed to protect them. We do not know what caused these Gods to turn on them and cause the eruption of Vesuvius, but it does not hurt to go back and see who these Gods were. But, of course, we must see who their chief Gods were to know who exactly they angered;

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; From 14 AD-68 AD, a lot of changes took place in Rome’s economy. These changes were instituted by Julian Emperor’s Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, and Nero.

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Tiberius was Augustus’ successor in 14 AD and became the second emperor of Rome. Tiberius’ rule was ruined by Sejanus who “encouraged the emperor’s...]]></description>

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On the 24th of June, Titus Flavius Sabinus Vespasianus succeeded his father’s throne as our new emperor. But who is Titus Vespasianus? From our research we have uncovered who our new emperor really is. Titus, the elder son of Emperor Vespasian, was born in AD 39. This indicates he is now 40 years old, and in these 40 years of his life he has definitely experienced quite a lot. As a young boy he was educated...]]></description>
