Roman Empire (Part 2)

Persecution of Christians:
-Romans were harsh toward those who wouldn't worship the emperor
-Often used for "entertainment" purposes in the Colosseum
-Despite the oppression, Christianity grew quickly. (10% of people in the empire)

What to study for the test tomorrow:
-4 emperors
-Persecution of Jesus and Paul


Maybe-possible Essay?
-What's the diff. between Roman Republic and the Roman Empire
(Democracy, Monarchy, Aristocracy)
