STATES & EMPIRES Cities such as Chang’an and Rome were
centers of trade, public gatherings, religious rituals, and political administration.
Society was based on hierarchies (slaves through elites) that ensured supplies of food
Patriarchy dominated gender roles & family life (big surprise, huh?) Ex. Paterfamilias in Rome, Confucius’ 5
relationships

FALL OF EMPIRES Roman, Han, Persian, Mauryan & Gupta
Empires all fell during this period. Why? The elites controlled too much wealth &
wanted more, therefore: Environmental damage (ex. soil erosion) Social tensions Economic difficulties
Borders became too vast and were prone to invasions (Huns in India, Germanic tribes)
