The classical period did not start in 1,000 BC. The classical period of the Greeks was the 5th and 4th centuries BC (it was followed by the Hellenistic period 323-146 BC). For the Romans, the classical period started in the 2nd century BC.

At the beginning of this period Rome was a Republic. It was headed by two annually elected consuls who also commanded the army in conjunction with the praetors, the second highest officers of state. The senate was the advisory body for the consuls, but became the most powerful political body because it could issue decrees and because with imperial expansion it was in charge of the administration of the provinces (conquered territories) and because it supervised the treasurers (the quaestors). Initially, the provinces were governed by proconsuls, former consuls who were put in charge of them. Later they were the governors, who were recruited from among the senators. The governors also commanded the legions stationed in their provinces.

After the fall of the Republic, Augustus established rule by emperors (27 BC). The emperor was an absolute ruler in charge of everything and the senate became an instrument for his rule. With regard to the provinces, Augustus struck a compromise with the senate in which the senate still recruited the governors of the oldest provinces of the empire, and the emperor appointed his own governors for the other provinces. Most of the emperor's provinces were frontier ones. Since most of the legions were stationed in border provinces, this gave the emperor control over the bulk of the army.

When were the Ancient Times?

From 500 BCE to 500CE where were most of the followers of Islam?

Prophet Muhamamd was born in 571 A.D. so there is no question of the presence of Muslims before that time. However on the other side, It must be recognized that: Islam was not introduced after 571 A.D., but has been in existence since the day the first man ( Adam ), came to earth. Islam stands for peace and submission before Allah and so all the religions were initially ( Yes. I mean all ), Islam. Only later did they deviate from the true path and so God had to send the original religion again from time to time ( Of course with different names ). Quran calls upon Prophet Abraham and Prophet Jesus as Muslims. Thus by this definition, the Msulims were all around the world at every time in History.

Where had Judaism spread by 600 AD?

Judaism - and Jews - had spread throughout the known world by 600AD with substantial populations in many nations and in all three of the continents that were known at the time.In Europe, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, France (which was an important centre of Jewish learning during the Middle Ages), Georgia, Malta and Turkey have had Jewish populations since prior to 2000 years ago.Armenia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia and Slovenia (where the Jewish population pre-dates the Slavic population which gives the country its name) have been home to Jews since Roman times. Spain has had a Jewish population since at least then, but some scholars - who believe the biblical Tarshish was located in Spain - claim that Jews have been in Spain since the days of King Solomon. Portugal may also have had Jewish residents during Roman times.By 600CE (AD), they had spread even further. Jews had made it into Germany by the 4th Century CE and possibly into Switzerland - an archaeological investigation at the Roman Augusta Raurica revealed what may be a representation of a menorah (Jewish candlestick) dated 300CE. Jews could also be found in Russia and Croatia at this time and documents have proved they were definitely in Portugal. There is also a 7th C CE Jewish settlement at Baku, in Azerbaijan.In Africa, it is believed that some Jews may have remained in Egypt following the Hebrews' flight from slavery as found in the Torah and Old Testament. They were certainly present during the Ptolemaic period, circa 400BCE (BC). Other African nations with Jews at the time would have included Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, which have all had a Jewish population since Roman times and Libya which has been home to Jews since the 3rd C CE - these are the Mizrahi Jews, most of whom have since emigrated to Israel. Ethiopian Jews are known to have existed since the 7th C BCE.A discussion of African Jews could not be complete without mention of two very interesting Judaic groups - the Lemba of South Africa and the Igbo people of Nigeria. The former are ethnically Jewish but followers of Protestant Christianity; however, during religious ceremonies they display disticntly Judaic customs. Though not considered Jewish by the majority of Jews, they have been living in the area since at least 500BCE. The Igbo (who are also known as the Heebo and whom are said to have their origins in slavery) people include a small number of Igbo Jews who claim to be descended from the Israelite tribes of Gad, Zebulun and Manessah. Igbo legend suggests that the Igbo Jews reached Nigeria around 500CE, but some sources suggest there have been Jews in the country since as long ago as 638BCE.The majority of European nations were home to Jews within a few centuries of 600CE, including Britain where Jews are first documented during the Norman Conquest, though it is believed that Jews may have entered the country with the Romans and that small numbers remained in the centuries in between.


Are the important teachings in judaism the same as Christianity?

There are two major differences between Judaiam and Christianity, and with that, one bad misconception. The differences first....1. In addition to the OT or Hebrew bible, Jews also accept the Talmud (a collection of rabbinic decisions and interpretations written between 200-500CE) as "scripture." Christians do not.2. Christians believe that Yehoshua (Jesus) is the Messiah, most Jews do not.The misconception is that most Christians believe that Jews do not believe in Messiah, when in fact, they believe it with every fiber of their being. The difference is, Jews look for the coming of Yehoshua, Christians believe he came and seek his second coming. However, it is the same being/person both are speaking about.Regarding the important teachings, many are exactly the same. While most Christians do not keep the Sabbath, they do live according to the rest of the 10 commands. Both believe that the two "great commands" are to love God and neighbor. Both serve the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Both seek the coming kingdom, both see a time of trouble coming upon the world before the kingdom is in place.Jewish AnswerSince Christianity is based on the rejection of Judaism, they aren't the same. The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach and is made up of three section: Torah (Teachings), Nevi'im (Prophets), K'tuvim (Writings). The Christian Old Testament is based on the Tanach but was altered to support the teachings of Christianity.The word messiah is the anglicised version of the Hebrew 'moshiach'. Moshiach literally means anointed and was a title given to any person who was properly anointed with oil as part of their initiation to their service of HaShem (The Creator). Historically, we had many valid moshiachim (pl): kings, priests, prophets, judges. There is a prophecy of a future moshiach, however, there is nothing supernatural about him, he'll be a religious Jew who will lead the country of Israel. The idea of the moshiach is a relatively minor subject in Judaism.In Judaism, the greatest mitzvah (commandment) is that of 'tzdakkah'. The word tzdakkah literally translates as 'justice', however, in modern use it is most commonly used to refer to charity.Judaism does not accept the following Christian beliefs and concepts:- The trinity- Original sin- The Christian concept of sin- The devil- Heaven and hell- The idea of eternal damnation- The Christian concept of messiah- The virgin birth- That G-d can be man or son of man- The need to pray to G-d through intermediaries- The Christian concept of salvation and graceThese are some examples of Christian concepts/teachings that are not accepted by Judaism, it is not a complete list.
