The Classical Period 1000 BCE- 500 CE INTRODUCTION The period marks the decline in river civilizations and a surge in population in three areas: China India Mediterranean (which includes the Middle East, Southern Europe, and Northern Africa) These civilizations proved to be highly durable; however, it does not reflect the history of the entire world. The Classical Period is composed primarily of empires and dynasties that boasted great power, religious ideas, and artistic ideas. Many social customs and diverse ideas found in our societies today can be traced back to this period.

Italy is currently in Stage Four of the Demographic Transition Model. They currently have a -0.1 Rate of Natural Increase. This is caused by many contributing factors: a low CBR and a higher CDR (due to the majority of the population being older). Paired with emigration, the country is reducing its population growth. High Crude Death Rates and even higher CBR, creating gradual population growth, characterized Italy’s stage 1. The Industrial Revolution encouraged progression into the next stage. In the mid-nineteenth century, sanitation and new medicines caused Italy’s CDR to drop and NIR to rise. After the population peaked, it began to even out, and eventually decreased to create Stage Four.

Foreign Policy: What happens after Gadhafi? (CNN Opinion) After Gadhafi, the first challenge will be security. Failure to maintain public order is what got us into big trouble in Iraq, where Saddam Hussein?s ?stay behind? operation stirred civic unrest and destroyed government buildings. The murder in Libya last month of the overall rebel commander is a reminder that internecine warfare among the more than forty-five rebel militias is a real possibility. People who lost family and tribal members to the Gadhafi regime may seek to settle scores. Former regime elements may seek to defend themselves and to ?privatize? state assets. Criminals will see opportunities to traffic in arms, drugs and even people.
