Ancient Rome and Eary Christianity

We took our Ancient Greece Unit test in class today. Then i took notes from the board:

Power and Authority: Rome began as a republic, a government in which elected officials represent the people. Eventually, absolute rulers called emperors seized power and expanded the empire. 

Empire Building: At it's height, the Roman Empire touched three continents (Europe, Asia, Africa). For several centuries, Rome brought peace and prosperity to its empire before eventual collapse.

Religious and Ethical Systems: Out of Judea rose a monotheistic religion known as Christianity. Based on the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, it soon spread throughout Rome and beyond.
