Ancient Rome The Rise and Fall of an Empire: Revolution 1

Life of Tiberius Gracchus.

Rome was once a largely democratic society, with regular elections. This Republic lasted for 500 years, but then came Tiberius Gracchus. He believed in the ideals of the Republic - fairness, decency and justice for everyone -but was appalled by Rome's aristocrats' treatment of the poor. So he unleashed the power of the mob upon the streets of Rome, with devastating consequences.

I'm italian and have red hairs by the way and a very, very white skin, if you really think that there are only olive skined people in italy...

@MathildeXEma

makes sense. I read an article a few weeks ago on the genetic diversity in Europe and it turns out that Southern Europeans have more diversity than Northern Europeans (due to early Scandinavians being primarily nomadic, and thus they mainly mated amongst themselves)

And you being an Italian should be happy about this, since the diversity in your DNA is a good thing; your offspring has a far better chance at being healthy

@mjohanss1975 Lawl? Keep talking about wasting time and writing blocks and blocks about nothing but whining :D it took me nothing to "find" your post, because I stumbled upon it reading through the commentaries at my lunch-break, so that's for your theory xD

and that you insist on stating "facts" about anything related to history is the final prove that you don't no shit about anything you rambled here. Congrats, bro ;)

also: sexism, much? :D

[mjohanss1975]

@Kathrinoyo But you know what? I have no time to waste on an insignicant unemployed troll (only the unemployed would waste time the way you do so I am making the assumption) and I have better things to do than feeding a troll. Since you're a woman, you need to reward my attention with pussy, otherwise why the hell would I pay you any mind? No point in replying. You are already blocked so I won't receive notification that you have responded. Like I said; I got better things to do even if you dont

[mjohanss1975]

@Kathrinoyo Hmm and out of all the things I said in that comment (took some digging for myself to find it so I can only imagine the effort you must have put into it. What kind of loser cares THAT much?) the bit about the hair is the only thing you latched on to? That wasn't even close to being the main point. You being the uneducated troll that you are, however, failed to grasp the main point and went after the one detail that is only theory in a post full of facts.

[Kathrinoyo]

@mjohanss1975 No, I picked the comment because you stated a fact which wasn't one AND to get you all worked up. I worked and you obviously are a sissy, because you can't handle it :)

And I wouldn't hesitate to call you that AND punch you in the face, if we'd meet in real life. And I'm a woman ;D

[mjohanss1975]

@Kathrinoyo You know what's laughable? Somebody who calls somebody on the net something that they would not dare to say in real life. Did I make any references to you being a pussy? No I did not because that kind of name-calling is laughable on the net. It is also laughable to dig up a two month old comment on PAGE 5 just for the purpose of pointless trolling. Are you so eager for attention that you have to dig through old comments just to find one you can troll?

[Kathrinoyo]

@atnight87 what about all that american-stuff? Is everyone who doesn't agree with you american? Wow, some complexes didn't work out in the therapy, I guess :D

you SPEAK latin? Yeah, right. Like that other dude from Malaysia. xD you youtube-kids are funny as hell.

[Kathrinoyo]

@mjohanss1975 Is there a reason you only refer to that last part. Oh let me get it.. you don't have any argument left to prove me wrong, so you're just going over to that "I'm the toughest mofo around here, you wouldn't call me anything if you were right in front of me"-sissytalk? Laughable :D

[atnight87]

@Kathrinoyo nationalist rubbish?

Mine was a statement from someone that studied Latin and ancient Greek since high school, and still does at uni.

Also, from someone that speaks Italian, Latin and French, and knows well Rome's history, since I did many uni exams about it.

What about you?

Or are you just another ignorant yankee that lets its mouth speak without studying and thinking, copying from Wikipedia?

Want to bomb me cause I do not agree with you?
