The Ancient Greeks believed that the Earth was made up of four elements: Earth, water, fire and air. These elements then corresponded with the seasons due to their properties: e.g. fire =F= summer because it is associated with heat. This idea also extended into medicine, as Hippocratic ideas were established, where it was believed that the body was made up from four humours: blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile, and one became ill when any of these humours became out of balance. This idea was not difficult for the Ancient Greeks to accept as the each humour corresponded with a season. For example: blood =F= spring (it is warm and moist) phlegm's =F= winter (one was thought to have an excess of phlegm's when one had a cold, therefore due to the fact one usually gets colds in the winter this humour was associated with it) yellow bile =F= summer (an excess of this humour was thought to cause sweating, and the yellow colour is also thought to be summery) black bile =F= autumn (the colour of the dead leaves is associated with this humour, and it was also thought to cause dry skin, again a similar property of dry leaves). I hope this answer is a satisfactory one

the land was very difficult to farm because the land wasn't very level

The great achievement of the Early republic was to integrate the rich plebeians into a patrician-plebeian oligarchy. The plebeians were the commoners, both rich and poor. The patricians were the aristocracy. The patricians monoplosided the senate and the offices of state. The poor plebeians rebelled several times and formed the (poor) plebeian movement, which fought for the economic grievances of the poor. This started the 200 year long Conflict of the Orders. The rich plebeians assumed leadership of this movement and used it to press for power-sharing with the patricians. After a long series of agitations and reforms, the rich plebeians eventually gained access to the senate and the offices of state and shared power with the patricians. They were also given equite status (cavalryman), which was the lower tier of he aristocracy.

The failure of the Conflict of the Orders was that the economic grievances of the poor was never addressed properly. Over time the plight of the poor became worse and become one of he factors which led to the civil wars of the Late Republic which were the downfall of the Republic.

There were diplomatic achievements as well. When republican Rome expanded into Central and southern Italy in the 4th century BC and early 2nd century BC, she turned the peoples of this area into allies. The allies provided soldiers who fought in auxiliary troops which supported the Roman legions in exchange for a share of the spoils of war. Some of these peoples were forced into alliances, some volunteered. These alliances greatly increased the pool of military manpower available to Rome, which became the largest in the Mediterranean. The allies supplied 60% of this pool.

The Republic also made alliances with some Greek states who sought her protection in the conflicts between Greek states. She made an alliance with the Numidians of modern Algeria towards the end of he Second Punic War (218-201 BC). She also turned Armenia, Syria and Judea into client states.

There were many ourstanding contributions made to us by the Romans. One of them is their legal system, with its early form of checks and balances, and the right of individuals.

The ancient Greek words for food are "τροφή" and "βρώσις". They both are feminine, so the full form is "η τροφή" and "η βρώσις". Another word they used was "ο, η, το εδώδιμος-η-ον", meaning "eatable".

In modern Greek the analogue words are "η τροφή" , "η βρώση", but also "το τρόφιμο" , "το φαγητό" and "το φαϊ".

Greek avarice. The Achaeans (Greeks) went on a ten year looting expedition around the coast of Asia Minor. After an initial failed attempt on the richest city, Troy, they came back in the tenth year of pillaging for another crack at Troy, succeeding this time, stripping and destroying the city and selling its population into slavery.

They most valued the large territory they had taken over in the southern Peloponnese Peninsula and its population whom they had turned into serfs: this gave them their power, both economically and their army used the serfs as light infantry, taking seven of them to support each Spartan armoured warrior, and so making their army the largest in Greece.

Very mixed-up and rather confusing. She had three husbands and one lover. Her first husband was her older brother, who died of a fatal wound. Her second husband was her younger brother, who died by drowning in a river because he was wearing gold armor. She then had a lover, Julius Caesar, the dictator of Rome, who she had her first child with, who was called Caesarion. When Caesar was murdered in Rome, she then married Marc Antony, who was a Roman general. They had three children; a twin boy and girl, and a little boy. Unfortunately, the twin girl, named Cleopatra Selene, was the only child of the four to live to adulthood. When Octavius conquered Egypt, Marc Antony killed himself because he was ashamed of the military defeat an thought Cleopatra was dead. Later that same day, knowing her husband was dead, Cleopatra let herself be bitten by a poisonous snake and died as well. She was going to be a slave to Rome her whole life if she lived, and who wants that? To her, her life was over. Very dramatic and overall melancholy love life, if you ask me. I mean, come on, all of her husbands died, and then she commitied suicide. Poor Cleopatra.
