  1. Greece and RomeIntroduction Greece and Rome have impacted the American Democratic Jurisprudence system in ways that can not be ignored. Athenian Democracy is considered the first Democratic model of Western Civilization. Roman Representative Government makes another significant contribution to what will later impact the American Model for a Republic. In addition we have the Code of Justinian (Twelve Tables) that brings further accountability through the Law to the Roman people. Both Greece and Rome have had a tremendous impact on the American legal and democratic systems.

  9. Teacher PageLeaner Standards • State Social Science Learner Standards as they pertain to this Web Quest on the Middle Ages. • California State Content Standards for 10th grade World History. • Students in grade ten study major turning points that shaped the modern world, from the late eighteenth century through the present, including the cause and course of two world wars. They trace the rise of democratic ideas and develop an understanding of the historical roots of current world issues, especially as they pertain to international relations. They extrapolate from the American experience that democratic ideals are often achieved at a high price, remain vulnerable, and are not practiced everywhere in the world.Students develop an understanding of current world issues and relate them to their historical geographic, political, economic, and cultural contexts. Students consider multiple accounts of events in order to understand international relations from a variety of perspectives. • 10.1 Students relate the moral and ethical principles in ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, in Judaism, and in Christianity to the development of Western political thought. • 2. Trace the development of the Western political ideas of the rule of law and illegitimacy of tyranny, drawing from selections from Plato’s Republic and Aristotle’s Politics. • 3. Consider the influence of the U.S. Constitution on political systems in the contemporary world. • California Social Science Standards for 10th Grade World History as it pertains to this Web Quest on Greece and Rome are continued on the following page.

  10. Teacher Page Leaner StandardsContinued • 10.2 Students compare and contrast theGlorious Revolution of England, the American Revolution, and the French Revolution and their enduring effects worldwide on the political expectations for self government and individual liberty. • 2. List the principles of the Magna Carta, the English Bill of rights (1689), the American declaration of Independence (1776), the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen (1789) and the U.S. Bill of Rights. • These are the standards I have found correlate to some degree with this Web Quest on Greece and Rome. Democracy is a major theme in the standards throughout our survey course study of World History. • Greece and Rome serves as another building block towards the evolution of American Democracy. Ranging from the 10 Commandments through Athenian Democracy, the Roman Republic, the Magna Carta, and the spread of Christianity (Protestant Reformation). This is another step towards diminishing the role of monarchs in Western Europe and another small step towards American Democracy. It is important for students to see American Democracy as a historical process over thousands of years, that slowly grows towards freedom for all people in Western Civilization. It is also important to note that when the American Union is formed women are unable to vote and slavery for African Americans still exists. Even after this a Civil Rights Movement in the 1960’s is crucial towards further democratizing America for all people i.e. women and minorities. The main concept is that democracy is a process that can be traced before, after and during the Middle Ages.
