Because they had not has much entertainment as we have. They only had choice between theater, gladiator fights and chariot races. They liked chariot races because this is action, adrenaline, ect. Chariot races are like car races today.
Stone tablets, chariots, gladius' and coloseum fights
YES! Most of what we do today were influenced through Rome and Greece.
Roman influence can be seen in architecture, laws, language, and certain cultural practices around the world today. Examples include the use of Roman-inspired columns in government buildings, the basis for many modern legal systems derived from Roman law, the influence of Latin on many languages, and the continuation of Roman customs such as the celebration of holidays like Easter and Christmas.
No influence. The Romans did not have paper money and their coins fell into disuse after the fall of the Roman Empire.
About the only resemblance Roman chariot races and our horse races have today is the betting on the outcome. True we have harness racing where one horse pulls a cart, but the horse has to be controlled, that is, he has to run at a pace or a trot. The Romans, however, had rather light weight racing chariots pulled by (usually) four horses and they ran at breakneck speed four times around the circuit.
A few of the Roman achievements in use today are the water pipes (aqueducts), concrete, the taxi meter, starting gates at horse races, and many aspects of our legal system.
The way it influence us is as they had gladiator fights today we have boxing fights. Also back then they had flutes and whistles as we still have today. The girls played with dolls and the boys played with swords and shields. They also played handball and marbles. And another game which everyone knows is naughts and crosses. Back then they had chariot races but today we have horse races making it less dangerous and more conrolled. Back then they had bets too. Riders or jockeys were identified by colours and patterns which is the same as today. Please use this [: If this is for year 8 SOSE that is what i did its hard isn't it!
Charioteers were the men who drove the racing chariots, or any chariot for that matter. In the case of ancient Rome, the charioteers could be likened to today's race car drivers.
because they still believe in god or goddeness
The presence of interior arched arcades and neo-classical statues or busts would indicate a Roman influence.
The Roman language, Latin, had a significant impact on many modern languages, particularly in Europe. Latin served as the language of the Roman Empire, which spread its influence across the continent. As a result, many languages evolved from Latin, influencing vocabulary, grammar, and structure. This influence can still be seen today in languages such as Spanish, French, Italian, and English.
