The Roman Empire: Roads
by Kyle Marshall - Saturday, March 21, 2020, 1:28 PM
The game changer that I chose to write about this week was the Roman's building some of the highest quality roads in the world. These roads were unlike any that had ever been seen before. These allowed for much faster and more efficient travel in and out of Rome. This made communication and trade much quicker allowing the Roman Empire to grow and thrive. They were very straight and very high quality. Most of them were made with stone and higher than the land around them with large ditches along the side to allow drainage. To keep the roads straight they used a tool called a groma and then marked accordingly. Many of these roads still stand to this day.

The Roman Empire
by Salam Alajami - Sunday, March 22, 2020, 9:51 PM
-I have always been fascinated the Roman empire and the huge calcium theater. A large calcium that had seats for 45,000 people and more room for 20,000 people standing. A theater is too real where 5,000 people and 11,000 animals were slaughtered in a one series of games.
- It was interesting to learn about Romulus and Remus story, the twin brothers who were raised by a she-wolf, that ended up fighting and one of them killed the other. One day birds flocked over Romulus and they knew he would be the first king of Rome. When on the other hand, Remus who was his brother had refused and argued the opposite. The twin brother fought and Romulus ended up killing Remus.

Judaism and Early Christianity
by Mohammed Al Dhahi - Sunday, March 29, 2020, 2:13 AM
I did not have any idea about these religions. I read about these religions in google. these are different from my religion Islam. that is amazing to read about a new religion. I founded this Jewish Christianity is the foundation of Early Christianity, which later developed into Christianity. Christianity started with Jewish eschatological expectations, and it developed into the veneration of a deified Jesus after his earthly ministry, his crucifixion, and the post-crucifixion experiences of his followers.
Jesus
by Douglas McDonald - Wednesday, March 25, 2020, 10:10 AM
One of the biggest game changers In this chapter has to be the missionary work of Jesus’s apostles. After Jesus’s death, Jesus apostles John, Paul, mark, and Matthew spread the teachings and works of Jesus around the world. They did this by traveling and writing the book of the New Testament, without this the teachings of Jesus would not have been spread very far and the religion of Christianity would have never made it very far

The Quran
by Salam Alajami - Wednesday, April 8, 2020, 7:57 AM
I have always found it interesting and fascinating how there are many Muslims who don't speak Arabic but, still learn Arabic just so they can read the Quran since it is untranslatable.

Feudal society
by Abdullah Alnassir - Monday, April 13, 2020, 4:32 PM
Feudal society is a military hierarchy in which a ruler or lord offers mounted fighters a fief (medieval beneficium), a unit of land to control in exchange for a military service. The individual who accepted this land became a vassal, and the man who granted the land become known as his liege or his lord.
The Middle Ages
by Mohammed Al Madan - Friday, April 10, 2020, 11:46 AM
The basic government and society in Europe during the middle ages was based around the feudal system. Small communities were formed around the local lord and the manor. The lord owned the land and everything in it. He would keep the peasants safe in return for their service. The lord, in return, would provide the king with soldiers or taxes.
