Changes in Rome

1. Rome's population numbered between 60 and 80 million
people

2. the Roman Empire included more than 3 million
square miles

3. About 1 million people lived in the city of Rome

I think that when more people came to Rome being overpopulated may have been a problem.

Q; What role did Julius Caesar play
in the decline of the republic and
the rise of the empire

A: Julius Caesar was the leader. He took control of the city and what needed to be done to make the city better. He started colonies where the landless could own land and increased pay for soldiers. He also helped poor people to get jobs for themselves.
