Harry Potter Morning Light

When a person stands on the stage and faces thousands of people in the audience, he cannot hear what they are saying.

Everyone was yelling, and the sound turned into a cacophony of waves, but those on stage could still see the expressions on the faces of the people in the crowd.

When a person feels that he is invisible in the crowd, he will feel safe, he can show his true self, and the expression at this time will be clearly seen by the people on stage.

Cheering is of course enjoyable, but it is easy to get lost in it, not only the people being cheered, but also the cheering people. People in a group will do the same thing together with passion. Sometimes it's for the leaders on stage, sometimes it's for the events in the arena.

Maybe the United States has a lot of problems, but there is one thing they did.

It is impossible for the president and the county magistrate to have no affiliation in the legion, so even if the county magistrate defies the president's order, the president cannot fire him. King Clovis of the Franks once hoped to get a vase, but this vase belonged to other warriors as spoils of war. He felt that doing so violated the custom of distributing spoils of the tribe, so he opposed Clovis' request. Clovis didn't say anything at the time, but later found an excuse during a review, drew his sharp ax and smashed the soldier's head.

Caligula's real name was Guyo Caesar, and the soldiers gave him the nickname Caligula, which means little boot. He was a lovely boy when he was young, but his grandfather Tiberius was not a kind old man.

He and the brother Gracchus who initiated the reform at the end of the Roman Republic have the same name, but they are two completely different people. The human guard is directly controlled by the emperor, and it is no longer protected by the citizens spontaneously like Tiberius Gracchus.

Caesar also died in an assassination. Although he was a military commander, how could he bring so many guards to the Senate?

It's just that this team that was supposed to protect the safety of the royal family has become a major hidden danger since its establishment, and it launched many rebellions in the late Roman Empire. The throne is easy to come by, and sitting is actually very uncomfortable, but all tyrants are often given the title of licentiousness. Tiberius had a small island. On a certain summer day in AD 26, Tiberius suddenly left Rome. People knew what he was going to do. At this time, fortune tellers came out to appease the people, and then they predicted a result. After Tiberius left Rome, he would never return.

Tiberius went to Capri, an island surrounded by cliffs on three sides, to live in seclusion, which was difficult for outsiders to approach. He continued to manage the country by letter.

Everything that happened on the island is unknown to outsiders. Caligula was indeed a benevolent dictator for a period of time after he succeeded to the throne. The people of Rome loved him, but he fell ill not long after, and the people prayed for him. Willing to exchange his own life for the life of Caligula.

This was a kind of "rhetoric", but Caligula took it seriously. He ordered the civilian to be dressed as a sacrificial animal, slit his throat and threw him against the Roman city wall.

In addition, he changed the rules of the game of sword fighting. Generally speaking, a fighter with light armor will fight another fighter with light armor. Sea fish fighters wear heavy armor. Caligula made a fighter with light armor fight The Rathians fought with the sea fish fighters.

This Thracian gladiator is not Spartacus. Even the bloodthirsty Roman citizens object to this unfair duel, but Caligula hopes that this "game" can continue. Would a heavily armored gladiator die faster?

It is very unsafe without heavy armor protection, but the Thracian's movements are more sensitive, and the Thracian can kill the sea fish fighter at any time.

But he also knew that the emperor would not let him leave the arena alive if he did not stage some bloody spectacle for Caligula.

Caligula built a pontoon bridge across Baya Bay to mock a fortune-teller who said that Caligula's chances of becoming emperor were as good as crossing the bay on horseback. After becoming emperor, the fortune teller ran away.

Compared with beasts, Caligula is a real monster. Gladiators cannot escape like fortune tellers, because fortune tellers are free men, while gladiators are slaves. Caligula can use the excuse of catching escaped slaves to send troops hunt him down.

When people are pushed to the point of no return, they will have amazing potential. Maybe that sea fish fighter is also forced to fight, but in that case, what other choice do they have?

Compared with gladiatorial racing, racing is much more "civilized", but racing is not a sport that the poor can afford. It requires horses, chariots, and time to train. Justinian's grand plan made many people suffer, but he also built some wonders, now the Blue Mosque in Constantinople is the former Hagia Sophia, which Justinian built, Its architectural form once aroused the respect of the Greeks. The circular roof has 24 windows for lighting. The entire dome is supported by four thick stone stacks. The south and north sides of the stone stack are supported by two Egyptian granite pillars. The building resembles a Greek cross inlaid in the center of the square.

Justinian made a wise decision not to move any wood into the church except for the door, which prevented the Hagia Sophia Church from being burned down like other buildings in the Nika uprising. People in the church cited its magnificence and magnificence. Many of the materials used to build the church came from quarries in Asia Minor, Greece, Egypt, and Gaul.

When Western Rome was finally destroyed, many Romans began to flee in all directions, some went to Venice, and formed a small fishing village in the lagoon, using the sea water as a moat.

Some Romans fled to Gaul, the land that Caesar had conquered, but it had already belonged to the Franks at that time. According to the Sacley Code, becoming a vassal of the king will have many privileges. The Romans are no longer high-ranking Roman citizens in this land, and they must try their best to become the vassal of the king.

In the Eastern Roman Empire, Roman citizens still enjoyed privileges. When the Justinian plague broke out, famine and earthquakes followed. Constantinople was shaken for more than 40 days. At the beginning, everyone had food. Eat, and later became a Roman citizen can be assigned to food. If anyone intends to fish, look at the corpses floating in the golden bay, too many people have died, there is no time to bury the corpses, there is no room for burials, and all the towers are the first place for corpses. When it's full, it's sealed again. When the towers were full, sea burials were performed and the bodies were thrown into the sea.

The elegy of the choir was no longer heard in the city, and the funeral procession was no longer seen. The tide washed the floating corpses to the shore, and a layer of golden oil floated on them. Who would be in the mood to eat fish caught in the sea like that?

Before the outbreak of the plague, the Eastern Roman Empire had 750,000 troops, but only 150,000 when Justinian died. Because of the reduction in military expenditures, the treatment of soldiers inevitably decreased. As a result, the combat effectiveness was not as good as before. The strength plummeted.

These merciless and cruel blows completely shattered Justinian's dreams, and he no longer recalled the glory of Rome in the past. If you want to make a ranking of the history of human disasters, 536 AD is undoubtedly the top. In that year, the Icelandic volcano erupted, and the volcanic ash caused 18 months of darkness in Constantinople. Even if the sun rose, only A red outline can be seen, but the slightest temperature can't be felt.

In 1792, the Icelandic volcano erupted again, which caused a reduction in grain production. Maybe Louis XV made the free market of grain in the hope of changing the living conditions of farmers. The price of grain was too low, but what they did not expect was that this led to land annexation and violence. rich bourgeoisie.

An honest farmer will keep 20% of the grain for himself to eat, and the remaining 80% will be shipped to the market. He usually sells it to the market. The grain dealers make a lot of money, and the farmer has to bear the tax and the cost of producing grain. Due to the risks caused by natural disasters and natural disasters, the land had to be sold to a rich man without money.

As for the citizens in the city, they watched the price of food rising steadily, and their income could no longer afford bread.

Some people may say that they don’t eat bread and eat other things. People need dignity and respect to live. If the rich have money, don’t they still buy noble titles from the king.

Free marketization has only brought the gospel to a few people, while the living standards of most people are still stagnant, lacking security and stability, and the theories and knowledge promoted by elites and intellectuals have no effect in the face of panic.

Ignoring the income level of the people and their desperate emotions, talking about politics in the salon all day long, or singing and dancing in Versailles, and adopting a dismissive attitude towards the people, the disrespect that the elite nobles have for the ordinary people is almost the same as the disrespect that comes to the people. The economic tragedy is just as painful.

Incomplete market competition will only allow a few people to hold power, and the nobles do not pay taxes, which gives them an advantage in competing with the bourgeoisie, but it will also lead to market failure. The problem would be less pronounced if it weren't for the fact that most people's income levels are too low to lead a decent life.

Napoleon took the French over the Alps, and a battalion mutinied because of the problem of military boots. Is it really because of the boots?

The British military uniforms and weapons are self-provided. Of course, the young man is willing to wear the beautiful red shrimp uniform and shiny military boots. Walking on the street looks so beautiful. Who thinks it's a decent thing to be in the army if he's walking down the street dressed like a beggar?

The prosperity brought by the market should not only be held by the wealthy class, but by the entire social class, so that the whole society can benefit from it. When a woman finds that her child is so hungry, she will hold up her apron and ask the king for bread.

There are rumors that there are many innocent people in the Bastille who were imprisoned because the nobles handed over "small notes", and the people of Paris stormed the Bastille in anger.

This is certainly a story, which is the same as Marie Antoinette's "They can't afford bread, why don't they eat cake", but are there really people who abuse power?

Public outrage is inevitable, not only the Bastille, but even the city gates of Paris were demolished by the people. Why should a tax collection place be so luxurious.

As for the construction of the Arc de Triomphe, the life of the French was not as tight as before. Although Napoleon was not a perfect monarch, people would feel confused after cheering for his victory, but he gave people a different way from the imperial examinations. The promotion mechanism - the army and the battlefield. If you fail the exam, you can repeat it. If you lose on the battlefield, you will die. There is no chance to do it again. The generals who are "one" with him are promoted quickly. This should be a transparent and fair system, but because Napoleon himself didn't like a lieutenant when he was studying, no matter how capable that person was and how many people recommended him, he would not give him a chance. In this extremely unfair situation Then, the lieutenant, together with the republican officers who were also treated coldly, disguised themselves as hussars at the rehearsal for the opening ceremony of the Canal Saint-Martin, and assassinated the dictator who destroyed the republic.

The assassination was unsuccessful, and Napoleon seemed on the alert, wearing a sword during the ceremony, unlike Caesar, who was unarmed and dressed in a Roman robe.

Those assassins who didn't die instantly were hanged later, and they were dressed in plain black uniforms instead of the uniforms worn by their old branches.

Just like the Governor of Venice, Marino Falieri, in fact, he is not the only one who used his power to kill his rivals or conspired to overthrow the Republic to achieve hereditary power. This purpose was gathered together with other "dissatisfied people" to try to eliminate the "Ten Council", so he became the only doge covered with a black veil among so many portraits of the doges of Venice.

If public opinion supports the republic, then Napoleon is assassinated, and his execution of those assassins will cause public opinion. It's just that neither the Directory nor the previous political parties allowed the people to live an orderly life. After the balance in people's hearts tilted, people were more willing to believe that the lieutenant assassinated Napoleon because of personal grievances. The people saw a decent funeral, but they couldn't see the corpse covered in a black veil in the coffin, and the army knew it.

If the assassination in BC was "not done", then the assassination was "not done".

It's just a death, and changing clothes, without flogging or dismembering the corpse, what's so scary?

Some people say that the wheels of history are rolling forward, but the wheels are mounted on the chariot. Once Bonaparte's chariot starts, it is best not to stand where the cart passes by.

Like the Thracian gladiator, he can kill the sea fish fighter in many mediocre ways, but if he wants to leave alive, he must create a spectacle to satisfy Caligula.

The eruption of Mount Tambora in 1816 also brought doomsday-like weather, and a comet passed by in the fifth year of Justinian's accession to the throne.

The spectacle is breathtaking and inspiring. If Bonaparte is the magician of the battlefield, the pen and ink is another kind of magician, who concentrates on shaping what people care about and deliberately hides what people really need.

"Last time" British newspapers portrayed Bonaparte as a dwarf. Out of fear of the law and misunderstanding of Bonaparte, people felt that he was nothing special. When you know it, you are so fearless, and you can easily summon up courage.

Theodora had given birth to a daughter before marrying Justinian. She knew what would happen in the future, so she buried the girl alive with her own hands.

The girl fell into a deep "sleep" before she had time to feel the pain. The question is that the purple robe is the most beautiful shroud. Did Theodora use the purple robe to wrap the baby?

After all, it was the last love her mother, a burlesque actress, could give her.
