Question 8

Ancient Romans valued military and societal order. Discipline, strength (for military and civic duties), and loyalty (to Rome, family, state) were core. Beauty/elegance (a) is more Greek; curiosity/imagination (b) not Roman focus; honesty/humor/helpfulness (d) less central than discipline/strength/loyalty.

A Roman legion was a military unit of well - trained professional soldiers, key to Rome's conquests. Senators (a) were political, plebeians (c) were a social class, patriarchs (d) are family heads—none match legion's military role.

At the Battle of Cannae in the Second Punic War, Hannibal (Carthaginian general) defeated the Roman army. Scipio later defeated Hannibal, Philip V was a Macedonian king, Marius was a Roman general (not the one defeated at Cannae).

Answer:

c. Discipline, strength, loyalty
