Short Answer Test Question: What problem did Rome face as it conquered more peoples?

Huge numbers of slaves were brought back to Rome. Wealthy landowners used them as cheap labor which meant poorer Roman farmers no longer hand land to farm.

An increase in climate change as a result of all the dust that the marching armies produced marching across Europe.

Poorer landowners had so much land to farm that they had too much work to do.

Rome started running out of slaves as their country grew in size.

Short Answer Test Question: As slaves replaced less wealthy Roman farmers, what happened to the social classes in Rome?

The gap between the rich and poor widened, causing tensions to grow in the political system.

The wealthy lost a lot of their money, leaving Rome without wealthy and powerful military leaders.

As all social classes became wealthier, fewer and fewer men wanted to be soldiers, which means Rome's army weakened.

Rome's wealthy people started caring only about wealth and no longer participated in politics, which led to Rome's government operating less effectively.

Short Answer Test Question: Why were many poor Romans so loyal to their military commanders after the army was opened to all free male citizens?

Rome's army gave poor Romans jobs they really needed and commanders were really the only people that could get land for the soldiers to support themselves after they retired from the army.

Roman commanders had the power of life and death over their soldiers so the soldiers had no choice but to be loyal to their commanders.

All of Rome's generals were brilliant orators (public speakers) who talked their soldiers into being loyal.

Roman women valued loyalty so much that soldiers who weren't loyal to their commanders stood no chance of getting married.
