What is the connection between the growth of the roman empire and the influences of its laws

We see the Roman Empire grow and then crumble. Why is this?

The Romans developed a REPUBLIC. Which is what the US is. A REPUBLIC NOT A DEMOCRACY.

With this, certain laws and issues are made and resolved. The government grows and with this, so does the population. The roman empire expanded greatly into southern europe and the middle east. With this, there were many problems which they faced, but dealt with by having its people elect officials in which they wanted to represent them in government. This brought all of their problems into the government to be fixed.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.
