The advantage was that one man could not become the supreme authority and if a man were elected consul he would have his chances to get back the funds he had to spend on getting himself elected sooner, as most ex-consuls were given provinces to govern and to exploit. A disadvantage was that the time limit of one year that the Romans imposed, was not really long enough to bring about any more than one or two major changes.
The limited terms of office existed during the Roman Republic. The monarchic period and the period of rule by emperors did not have these restrictions. The term of office of four of the five types of officers of state (the consuls, praetors, aediles and quaetors) was one year. That of the censors was 18 months.
The reason for such short of terms of office was that the Republic was established after the overthrow of the last king of Rome, who was a tyrant. The purpose of the Republic was to prevent the return of tyranny. The king was replaced by two annually elected consuls. Having two men in charge meant that the two could counterbalance each other. The short term of office meant that no one could concentrate power in their hands. Apart from the censors, when the other officers of state were created, they were given the same term of office. Originally, the term of office of the censors was five years because the Romans held a census every five years. It was then reduced to 18 months because such long tenure could lead to corruption.
The Romans saw two advantages in the short term of office. One was that it safeguarded liberty by preventing the accumulation of personal power through public office. The other, judging by the shortening of the tenure of the censors, was that it could act as a break on corruption.
A big disadvantage was the resulting lack of policy continuity. Such continuity was ensured by the (unelected) senate, which debated policy matters, made decisions through voting and issued advice. The consuls usually followed this advice. This and other factors made the senate the most powerful political body. The senate was composed of patricians (aristocrats) and former officers of state. This made it the political power base of the aristocracy. It also created conflict with the plebeian tribunes, the representatives of the common people and the poor, whose power base was the Plebeian Council.
There also could be problems on the military front. The consuls were also the commanders of the army. There were occasions when a consul rushed into a battle prematurely in order to fight before the end of his term as victory in battle would confer prestige. Moreover, with the emergence of longer wars which lasted several years this meant that military command had to change continuously. The power to command an army was also given to the second highest officer of state, the praetor. There was also the creation of the procunsuls propraetors, who were allowed to continue to command their armies after their office tenure was up.
for me the greediness of man is breaking the limits hence marching toward gold rushing i.e. extracting from all possible means rather the mining it for trade purpose fullfilment
No it is not. It is in a hilly area. ancient Rome was on the famous Seven Hills of Rome. Modern Rome is on more than a dozen hills. According to the Roman writer, Varro, before the city was named Rome, it was called "Septimontium" in reference to the seven hills which were within in the city limits. However there is debate over which hills were included.
Its a quote by JFK and its not really a question. I assume you know what conformity means, if not the quote doesn't make sense. Conformity is basically fitting in with the group, and since JFK is talking about the country, fitting in with other countries limits the USA's freedom and discourages growth. However, one can probably relate or apply this quote to their own life.
Absolute Monarchy: These monarchies ar ruled by a ruling person or family (dynasty) that has absolute control over their realm. In many cases they choose to allow advisors to serve them, elected or appointed. And in many of these nations the monarch "allows" the people the right to a legislative body. But the difference is, an Absoltue monarch can take or give privlages as he or she pleases. But just because the governemnt has complete authority doesnt make it a monarchy, an example is Communist Russia, the government has complete authority, but no one individual person does. (exmples: Saudi Arabia, Oman, Jordan, Monaco, Denmark, Sweden, Thailand, Cambodia, Nepal, Tibet)Constitutional Monarchy: These monarchies have a limit to their power, their is usually an elected representitive branch (parliament or congress) which put together a Constitution that the Queen or King cannot avoid. Kind of like the laws apply to a President. However in most constitutional monarchies their is a "IN CASE" clause which then allows the king or queen to suspend the Constitution and resume power as an absolute authority figure. The constitution greatly limits some monarchs to a "figure head" position. (examples: England, Spain, Norway, Montenegro, Georgia)Read more: Compare_Constitutional_Monarchy_and_absolute_monarchy
I believe it likely that they simply lacked anywhere to expand to. If you look at the edges of the Empire, they did not have many opportunities. They bordered modern-day Scotland, which had bad terrain that would have made conquering it difficult and made the land undesirable in the first place.They bordered modern-day Germany, where forests made it all too easy for the fierce local tribes to ambush them (see the Battle of Teutoburg Forest).They bordered the Middle East, but the climate was harsh (desert) and it was already inhabited by peoples that were empires in their own right (The Parthians and later the Sassanids).The only other border was along the Saharan Desert and that was clearly not an option.

Advantages of speed limits include improved road safety by reducing the risk of accidents and fatalities, better traffic flow and reduced congestion. Speed limits also help in reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Disadvantages include potential frustration for drivers, longer travel times, and difficulty in enforcement.

The government is able to place limits on businesses. They can do this by stopping monopolies, the amount of waste the company produces, and other measures.
