Rome took prisoners from conquered lands brought them to Italy, and forced them into slavery. By 100 B.C. forty percent of the people living in Italy were enslaved. Some slaves were well educated and those who earned wages usually could buy their freedom. But most slaves were treated terribly, and the terrible treatment lead to many slave rebellions.
