1. I read over some chapters and study the organizer and notes.
A. They were good but all I needed was more time to study and I would have done better, and also some other activities to help me remember.
B. Read over the chapters and notes, study with other pupils, get a family member to quiz me and write down every thing on a paper and see what I am missing.

2. That the romans invented concrete I couldn't believe that they had the technology to invent it, also I thought that it was invented within the last 300 years.

3. I would have liked to learn more about the romans naval military because they had all sorts of new inventions and weaponry, plus I had watched a documentary on there conquest over the seas.

Rome was falling apart because of the lack of food, stable government, battle victories and new technologies. I say it was Inevitable because something so large can not sustain itself. The splitting of the empire in my opinion was a mistake, because it lead to civil war for power. Rome lead to its own destruction by spreading its self to thin, plus it was placed in the middle of the Mediterranean sea in the middle of all the conflict.
