Compare and Contrast

Ancient Greece and ancient Rome are like two peas in a pod. Any time one of the magnificent cultures is talked about, quickly following is a topic regarding the other. Although ancient Greece differs greatly from ancient Rome, the two civilizations have many similarities as well. While they have certain aspects derived from one another, some of their techniques are also a basis for modern practices in the United States of America. A few related topics between ancient Rome and ancient Greece are geography, government, religion, lifestyle, literature, and art. Both ancient Greece and ancient Rome were located on peninsulas and were Mediterranean empires in southern Europe, but the terrains of the two were very diverse.

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.

The classical civilizations of China and India have many similar qualities as well as differences. With Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism in China and Hinduism in India, the affects on politics in both areas contrast immensely. Also, social systems become present in both regions, but differ in formality and severity such as the caste system in India. The dynastic cycle occurs in China consisting of a constant pattern of the rise and fall of a dynasty eventually forming a central government. Meanwhile, Indian dynasties do not unify the government as greatly with many kingdoms throughout the subcontinent. Religious variations, social classes, and various dynasties create distinct civilizations that influence modern day China and India.
