__    AQUEDUCTS ROADS SLAVES NERO ROMANSOLDIER COLOSSEUM ENDURING IMPACT HOME

Enduring Impact __ Ancient Rome has had many enduring impacts on our society today. You may not need to know this to survive Rome but it is quite interesting. Today in our society we do not have gladiator fighting, but what we do have is large stadiums that attract many people like the Coliseum in Rome. We have football stadiums (Browns Stadium); we have baseball stadiums (Progressive Field), and also performing stadiums (Gundarena). Are roads are also based off of the Romans construction. They are built wide and paved smooth. They also help us trade with other states that have different recourses than us. We have also taken the base of the way the Roman army was run and have expanded it in our own way. We still have uniforms and use many of there modified weapons. The aqueducts may not be used today but we have some sort of a modified version with our pipes that bring water to our houses. Our government is not really like the Roman government but we do have a leader sort of like an emperor. Nero and Obama are sort of in the same family of leaders. Our language is also based off of a lot of Latin Roots. Rome has helped us in many ways.
