i think i can help u some being the nice person i am

i'll edit this when i figure it out

when i had this summer 06 session 1...our readings were 7, 19, 21, 23, 24, 25, and 32

test 3 reading was "livy the early romans", "tiberius gracchus the republic at a crossroads", "gaius gracchus the republic continued", the revolt of spartacus", "ceasar: the man and statesman", the assasination of juilus caesar"

test three is basically about rome
Monarchy Era - 753-509BC
Republich Era - 509-27BC
Late Republic Era - 133-27BC
Empire Era - 27BC-AD330

you got etruscans and shit...then around 509bc, the romans threw out the etruscans
romulus killed remus to found rome
*etruscans made sewer system
in the republic era...read some shit on livy and plutarch
then there is some shit on the gov.
then there is shit about classes of people-patricians and plebians

there are magistrates like 2 consuls, 1-8 praetors, 4 aediles-2 patrician, 2 plebian
2-20 quaestors(like the tax man)

10 tribunes to the plebs(this comes in to play later)- 2 sensors

office of dictator- named only in emergency
287bc...plebs gain access passing laws that are for all romans
1.nobilitas 2. equestrians 3. middle class 4. small farmers 5. urban poor
late republic- 133-27bc
tiberius gracchus was a populares(used office to get what he wanted)-helped the poor
then you got the whole marius sulla thing going down

then u get down to like pompey, crassus, cicero, caesar and all those bro hams
then u got the whole marcus antony thing
then octavia and antony do some shit
battle of actium 31bc

yeah, i just realized i made this topic about a month ago. You actually posted the readings for test 2, so I have those. If you have them for the 3rd test I'd appreciate it.

Completely forgot about the other thread or I would have just posted there again.
