 Ancient Rome __ Religion __ If anything, the Romans had a practical attitude to religion, as to most things, which perhaps explains why they themselves had difficulty in taking to the idea of a single, all-seeing, all-powerful god. Most of the Roman gods and goddesses were a blend of several religious influences. Most form of religious activity required some kind of sacrifice. And prayer could be a confusing matter due to some gods having multiple names or their sex even being unknown. The practice of Roman religion was a confusing thing. If the Roman state entertained temples and rituals for the benefit of the greater gods, then the Romans in the privacy of their own homes also worshipped their domestic deities. If the romans broke a catholic law they were tourtured and killed. The romans had a lot of laws to follow to so they had to be very careful to follow them all.

Only one man ruled rome, the emperor. The Romans didn'tlike on man ruling the country so they organized three branches.Executive, Legislative, and Judicial.

The soliders that fought used weapens such as daggers and swords. They wore very strong armor and had very hard sheild that were very hard to get though because the roman soilders were good fighters.

 * The two leaders of the executive branch, the //consuls//, were elected for just one year by the upper class. They supervised the Senate and ordered the Roman army during wars. Other members of the executive branch were the tax collectors, mayors, city police, and other people in positions of power in cities. || The most powerful part of the legislative branch was the Senate. The Senate was a group of about 300 male citizens who owned land. They could tell the consuls how much money they could spend and on what. These men were appointed by the consuls. || The judicial branch had six judges who were elected every two years. They were in charge of deciding punishments that criminals would receive. Their job was similar to the job that judges have today in the United States. ||
