Why did the roman empire expand?
Once they had conquered villages and other cities, they had to deal with the war slaves and had to give them jobs. Because they had to give the slaves jobs, that took away jobs for the native Romans. Also, once a military ruler had conquered large areas of land, they kept wanting to expand and conquer. They became very power hungry and blood thirsty. Thus creating emperors and dictators. This is how you spell Romains, wait no, Romans: R-O-M-A-N-S
To what extent did the Roman civilization spread throughout the world through the movement of people?
Roman civilisation did not spread throughout the world. It spread through the Roman Empire and influenced some peoples who lived near its borders. Most of the world did not have contact with the Romans. The movement of people was certainly an important factor in the spread of Roman civilisation, though it was not the only one. A key role in spreading Roman civilisation was the establishment of Roman colonies (settlements) throughout the empire, partly to strengthen Roman control and partly to give land to Roman farmers who did not have enough land and landless Romans. This was a major factor in the latinisation of the empire. Contact though travel by traders in a flourishing trade and the taking of large number of slaves to Rome were other factors. Being under Roman administration also contributed as the conquered peoples had to deal with Roman officials The emperors also actively promoted the spread of an imperial ideology to justify their rule, bring the conquered people close to Rome and foster a more homogeneous empire.
What is the donatist controversy?
An event that took place in the 4/5th century in Rome. Some Christians bent to the will of Diocletian during the great persecution and the Donatists didn't think that those people's faith was valid any longer. There was controversy over who should be bishop of Carthage. So they sent representatives to Rome to argue their case but Constantine ruled that they were wrong. They still wouldn't give up so Constantine persecuted them, but that just made them martyrs.

How were the Romans able to take control of the Italian peninsula?
Up to the mid-4th century BC, Rome's expansion was limited to a regional level. Her wider expansion into Italy occurred with the three Samnite Wars (343-341 BC, 326-304 BC, and 298-290 BC) and the Pyrrhic War (280-275 BC). After the first Samnite war, Rome ceased to be a city-state. It granted full Roman citizenship to the most important Latin cities and partial citizenship (without the right to vote) to the Volsci and Campanians. These were allies who had revolted against Rome at the end of the mentioned war (in the Latin War (340-338 BC). They were now incorporated into the Roman Republic which became a large multi-ethnic commonwealth, greatly increasing her military manpower and eliminating the chance of rebellion by these former allies who were now juridically Roman. During the Second Samnite War Rome's policy was to encircle their territory (Samnium, in modern Molise and the mountains of Campania in the northern part of southern Italy) by making alliances with the peoples of central Italy north of Samnium (in modern Abruzzo) and to its east, in northern Apulia. After winning this war, Rome consolidated these alliances. Some peoples volunteered to become allies because of Rome's great military power and some were forced into it. In the third Samnite war, Rome defeated an alliance of Samnites, Etruscans (from eastern part of modern Tuscany), the Umbrians (from modern Umbria) and the Senones, a Gaul tribe that lived in Marche, a region on the Adriatic coast, to the east of Umbria. These vanquished peoples were forced to become Roman allies. The Lucanians (in modern Basilicata) of the mountains to the south of Samnium decided to ally with Rome. Central Italy and the mountains of the south (except for Calabria) were now under Roman indirect rule. Enslavement after a victory in battle was a way of wakening the defeated peoples. So was confiscation of lands. Rome founded Latin colonies (settlements of Romans and Latins) in strategic points. The purpose of this was to establish strongholds along key routes and a population presence in these strategic areas. In the long run, the colonies contributed to latinising the Italic peoples. The land around these towns was confiscated to give farms to the colonists. Rome also annexed a strip of land from coast to coast and just south of the vanquished Umbrians and Senone Gauls to consolidate her control over their territories. The system of alliances was powerful. The allies had to provide Rome with soldiers at their expense. However, they shared the spoils of war (which could be very large) with Rome as an incentive. The system had been described as inviting the victim of robbery to join the gang of robbers to share the next booty. Moreover, Rome often supported the ruling classes of the allies, ensuring loyalty. By the early 3rd century, the allies provided 60% of Rome's army. This combined manpower was massive. Rome defeated Pyrrhus (a Greek king who tried to take over southern Italy) in the Pyrrhic war thanks to this massive manpower. With this victory she took over the rest of the south. This provided further allies. Rome now had one of the largest armies in the Mediterranean.
How did Rome treat its people it conquered?
It attempted to give them peace, prosperity and good government.
Why did the Romans give full citizenship to conquered people living close to Rome?
Rome extended citizenship to their conquered peoples because they did not want to govern over that conquered land. They would let the conquered people become citizens and have the same positions they held when they were in charge. This made it easier for the senate to rule over peoples. Also if they had more people supporting their cause, and collecting taxes from them. The Roman Republic will have more means to conquer other land.
How did citizenship change as the Roman Empire expanded?
The extension of Roman citizenship was one of the ways that Rome gained territory or "conquered". It gave the territories the protection and benefits of Rome and in turn Rome had strong, loyal allies. Proof of this is the towns of Italy refusing to give Hannibal any assistance during the Punic wars.
