Roman Expansion Survival or Greed? 493 – 133 BC

The Struggle of the Orders 494 – 287 BCE Early Roman society consisted of two classes: Patricians and Plebeians… 494 BCE – Office of the Tribune created 460 BCE – Voting: residence replaced wealth 450 BCE – Twelve Tables 445 BCE – Lex Canuleia-marriage 367 BCE – Licinian-Sextian Rogation-consuls 287 BCE – Lex Hortensia- Plebeian Council

Roman Expansion 493 BCE – Battle of Lake Regillus/Latin League 396 BCE – Battle of Veii/Etruscans 390 BCE – first & only setback – Gauls seige on Rome 350 BCE - Romans bounced back- rebuilt the Servian Wall and remodeled the army BCE The Latin Wars/Roman Federation BCE defeated Greeks/Tarentum & Epirus By 264 BCE, 5 major world powers: Syria, Egypt, Macedonia, Carthage and Rome

By 264 BC, Rome had achieved two important successes: –It had secured social cohesion by redressing the grievances of the plebeians –It had increased its military might by conquering the peninsula, thus insuring the human resources with which it would conquer the Mediterranean world.

How was it possible for Rome to conquer so much so quickly? First, the strong and balanced government had the total support of the Roman people. Second, some defeated peoples (Latins) were treated as friends and, in several cases, made citizens. Third, Rome's army was highly disciplined and experienced by years of warfare. Fourth, Romans greatly valued military success. In fact, military success was needed if a man hoped to advance in the Roman government. Fifth, wars brought a lot of money and treasure. Valuables seized from the enemy made the government, as well as individual leaders, wealthy. Prisoners from the conquered lands became slaves.

The Punic Wars Three wars against Carthage started in 264 BCE and ended with Rome an international superpower in 146 BCE.

The Punic Wars, BCE

The first Punic War… The first war started over Sicily 264 and 241 BCE ended in defeat for the Carthaginian admiral Hamilcar. Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica became Roman territories

Hannibal Barca 247–183 BCE

Hannibal and the Second Punic War, BCE Started over control of a city in Spain Hannibal’s army of 50,000 men, 12,000 horses and 37 war elephants crossed the Alps in 15 days Hannibal hoped for support from the Gauls and other Latin people Battle of Cannae 216 BCE ended with 60,000 Romans dead.

Hannibal’s army of 50,000 men and 37 war elephants crossed the Alps

Battle of Cannae, 215 BCE - 60,000 dead. Rome’s future looked very bleak!

Publius Cornelius Scipio Rome sent an army under Scipio to Carthage, forcing Hannibal to return to Carthage to protect his homeland Scipio Africanus

The Battle of Zama brought the 2 nd Punic War to an end

The 3 rd Punic War, BCE A one-sided affair!

Consequences of expansion… The Hellenization of Rome Rise of a business/merchant class Immense wealth –a taste for luxury Most benefits of expansion went to the wealthy, patrician class Serious economic dislocations for the common people was under way

The legacy of wars … Farms had been ravaged and remained unproductive Citizen-soldiers returned after prolonged absence to find their families on the brink of bankruptcy Growth of Patrician latifundia (slave plantations) Growing slave population drove down wages

Problems for the small, independent, self- sufficient farmer… The increase in the slave population displaced the common farmers… In debt, without prospects for work, ruined farmers joined the ranks of unemployed in Rome… By 150 BCE -a revolution was brewing!
