• Almost 90% of the people were farmers.
• A silver coin named Adenarius was in used the empire.
• Rome had a network for trading.
• Agriculture was very important in the empire.
• Rome had made trade between each parts of the Empire.

The change that I consider negative is that about 90% of the people were farmers, because it there is low percentage of other jobs that need to be done.

3. The role that Julius Caesar played in the decline of the republic and the rise of the empire is that he emerged to bring order to Rome and dominated Rome as a triumvirate.

The one thing that interests me is the way the Romans traded among each other.
