Wake, eat, work, drink, sleep, dream... these are the things all individuals spend their limited time on Earth doing day to day. Little has changed from the early beginnings of man, but throughout history, people ha

Unlike the European empires, Nilotic Africa had no centralized government. Civilizations without government survive only through the natural barings of man, and still suffer greatly in the end through collapse by conquer, lack of goods, and the absence of economy. Although the African continent was mainly comprised of tribes, the eastern end of the continent, by the Nile, developed a civilization of educated and politically unified civilians. Borrowing many of these ideas from Ancient Egypt, a system of monarch took place, as kings were assigned position by God, and ruled by customary law. (Craig 182) Meroe and Aksum are two African civilizations that took part in the development of a stable form of government, utilizing specific concepts that would advance not only the government but civilization as a whole through an educated society, trading of earthly goods such as gold, iron, and other exotic minerals and items for trade with Rome, South Arabia, and India, and a king elected by the High Priest, yet chosen by God, while maintaining anything but a totalitarian government, as power was reserved to the high priests and civilians. (Craig 185) This form of government was essential to any kind of advancements in society, technology, military, and economy, in that education was provided to the community members, and power was not directed through one man, leaving doors of opportunity open for the success of the people and of the land.

In Classical Greece, citizens took pride in their separate, yet undivided, city-states, their culture, and their empire. All bound together by morale, a common language, and religion, the Greek way of life was one of high respect, honor, and pride. Unlike the Romans, Greek culture was full of idealists, those who saw all things to be mighty or perfect, in a sense, while the Romans looked at life through the eyes of a realist. Both empires’ governments supported the idea of public education, understanding that a sophisticated society led to a prosperous civilization. More than anything, the impact of government the Roman and Greek Empires made on many present day nations was dynamic. Classical Greece followed the early ideas of democracy. Adult, land owning males were eligible to vote, each city-state had a separate political leader, and there was no one king or queen to rule the land by monarch. Similarly, they established a strong central government that consisted of an executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The separation of powers was an idea that would lead to no one man making crucial decisions, and all citizens would have their fair share of participation. The most powerful of the three was the legislative branch that was made up of 300 male land owners, named the Senate. The Classical Greek traditions of government are seen today through the idea of democracy, trial by jury, and separation of powers, only to name a few. (Craig 90) More than anything, the pride and devotion of the citizens to their government is imper
