Roman Empire refers to the Roman Republic. After a series of struggles at the beginning of 1 century, it gradually transformed into an imperial country and eventually developed into one of the strongest empires in European history. The establishment and development of the Roman Empire has gone through several centuries, and its political system, social structure, economic situation and military strength are all important factors in the decline of the Empire.
The establishment of the Roman Empire began in 753 BC, when Rome was just a small village. With the passage of time, Rome gradually expanded its territory, established its own army and began to conquer the surrounding areas. In 509 BC, Rome established a Republic, which marked the beginning of Rome's transformation into an empire.
The language of the Roman Empire:
Latin is the official language of the Roman Empire and the local language of Italy. Latin in the imperial period was divided into at least two categories: classical Latin and vulgar Latin. Classical Latin is used as written language, while vulgar Latin is generally used as spoken language.
Classical Latin is very stable, and has not changed from the imperial period to the Middle Ages. Vulgar Latin has dialects all over the empire, which changed greatly and gradually evolved into Romanesque language.
Although Latin is the official language of the empire, Greek is one of the most important languages of the empire, especially in the eastern provinces of the empire. Even in Rome, Greek has become the language of education and society. Greek is the common language in the fields of religion (Christianity), science and art.
