  1. A famous Roman General, Julius Caesar, decided to invade Britain in 55BC, because he had heard that it had many treasures like coal. In 43AD, Emperor Claudius decided to invade Britain again. He sent 40,000 powerful troops, who gradually conquered most of the country. The troops were terrified of going to Britain because they had heard of the tribes who lived there. In fact they almost refused to go. He was cross with the Britain's for helping the Gaul's (now called the French) to fight the Romans.

  3. Going to school No one can be sure just how many Roman children went to school, but not all Romans could read or write. Children who did go to school began when they were about six or seven. Boys could keep going to school after the age of twelve. Teenage girls stayed at home with their mothers. Children didn’t have pens or paper. They wrote on wax tablets and did sums on an abacus. Roman children learned the language of the Roman empire, which was Latin.
