Changes

Roman ideals and concepts from the Roman Empire, such as an absolute supreme leader or emperor in the form of Caesar, to the Roman Republic have heavily influenced governments around the world. These have affected all branches of government utilized today, including the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The influences of Rome on the ideals of power and order were profound in the Middle Ages and later periods. The ideals have also incorporated Roman rule and governing that form the basis of democratic systems. Works by Cicero and other Romans were held in high esteem as examples of democratic ideals and freedom, which were adopted by intellectuals in the United States in particular, and subsequently influenced the formation of many governments today.   <div class="portal" style="width:85%;">==Related DailyHistory.org Articles==*[[Thomas Jefferson, the Founding Fathers and Christianity: Interview with Sam Haselby]]*[[Angels of the Underground: Interview with Theresa Kaminski]]*[[Why Was the Battle of Antietam a Pivotal event in the American Civil War?]]*[[Hodges' Scout: Interview with Len Travers]]*[[Engineering Victory during the Civil War: Interview with Thomas F.
