How has rome influenced westren civilization?

The Italian Renaissance was a revival and rediscovery of the classics (Rome and Greece). Painting often used themes from Roman and Greek mythology. Statues followed the Greek and Roman models. Architecture was also influenced by the Romans. In this period the Roman architecture textbook by Vitruvius was rediscovered and served as as guidance for the architecture of the time. These influences were also taken up by neo-classical architecture and sculpture in the 18th and 19th centuries. Reading the greats of Latin and Greek literature became a must for the educated elites. In 1070 The Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Law, also known as Justinian code) was discovered in a library in Pisa. It immediately became widely studied and influential. It is the foundation of the civil law of many modern countries.
