OK, 2 things I am going to tell you are very sort of simple well, I already know that circus Maximus was a great warrior. I watched a movie with this Rome charector in it.

Romulus built a bigger one and Remus didn't like that so he went over his wall and got killed

Hi Mr.Klumper
The first thing that I learned from this website was that after the Romans met people from greece and Egypt, Romans started wearing tunic under their wool robes. Another thing that I learned was that the more money they had, the better food they had to eat.

I am continuing my other blog post and the people of Rome that fought a lot were called gladiators so that they could fight.
1.I learned that a slave could only get their freedom if they were given it by their owner or if they bought their freedom.
2.I also learned that in Rome the first type of school was for younger children aged up to 11 or 12 where they learned to read and write and to do basic math.
Two things I know about Rome is that:
1. In their hair, women wore wooden hairsticks or wooden combs.
2. The Roman Empire was so big that there were a lot of different people with different cultures living in it.
1.] The Romans thought of the Greeks as being cooler than they were, so whatever the Greeks were doing in art, the Romans wanted some.
2.] There were many different ways of living.
1 Romans loved watching other people die. They thought that it was as fun to watch as going to horror movies or watching Cops on TV is fun. They also believed that their gods liked gladiatorial fights, so that going to the fights was a sort of religious experience as well as being fun.
2.The most common games were dice games. Where you threw the dice and bet on the results. These were essentially gambling games. But the Romans also played marbles and knucklebones (the vertebrae of sheep or goats).
Romulus and Remus were twin brothers.
The message of Christianity was spread around the Roman Empire by St. Paul who founded Christian churches in Asia Minor and Greece.
