Oligarchy - rule by a small group of people.

The Olympic Games - The Ancient Greeks loved competition of all sorts. Each year, the various city-states of Greece sent athletes to festivals of games, which were held to honor Zeus. The games were officially held every four years from 776 BC, but they possibly originated much earlier. A Greek myth credited the hero Herakles, better known as Hercules, with creating the running competitions at Olympia to celebrate the end of one of his missions called the twelve labors.

Life as a Roman. Everyday life in a Roman city was totally reliant on your status in society. The city, however, contained a mix of rich and poor people. The rich had the advantage of slave labor, whether it was warming the water at the baths, cooking and serving them their late afternoon meal, or educating their children. The poor, on the other hand, had no education, lived in run-down apartment blocks, and lived off the assistance of the state.
