Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 3066 The Veil of Ignorance (7)
After the founding of Rome, people all lived in a hilly area on the south bank of the Tiber River. There were many hills. The Latins were distributed on these hills to form villages according to blood relationships. Seven villages were then united together to form the "Seven Hills League". Therefore Rome was also called the city of seven hills.
The earliest Curlia Assembly acted as a consul in peacetime, handling conflicts and problems within the clan, and as a military leader in wartime.
The Romans differed from the Greeks who loved to debate in robes, although by the end of the Republic the Roman senators also enjoyed eloquence.
In an era when there was no national criminal law, it was not only the Germanic people. "Blood revenge", that is, revenge for one's own family members, was common. If he killed his enemy himself, the enemy's relatives would seek revenge from him. After his death, he His relatives avenged him. In the end, it may become a feud at best, or trigger a national war at worst.
Although Germanic law stipulates that the victim and his family can kill the current criminal without following the procedures, in principle, private individuals are prohibited from possessing such bloody judicial power.
Severus had told Pomona before that in order to prevent excessive justification of murder, the Ministry of Magic imprisoned Percival Dumbledore in Azkaban, even though he was a father eager to avenge his daughter.
Grindelwald took advantage of this and asked who exactly was protected by "that law", the International Statute of Secrecy? Although the scene in which he spoke had nothing to do with Dumbledore, it was spoken in Manhattan, New York.
Albus had asked Vogel to do what was right, not what was easy.
But the actual situation is that Grindelwald is unstoppable. Even if he does not allow Grindelwald to run for the International Federation of Wizards "temporarily", he may be replaced. The people will elect a German Minister of Magic who supports Grindelwald to come to power. He might even be assassinated, but at that time Muggle Jacob was thought to be an assassin who came to kill Grindelwald.
Sirius's rebellion eventually angered his mother, who removed him from the tapestry. This was a punishment in ancient times, just like before the collapse of the Western Roman Empire, the church tried criminal cases. If the defendant was found guilty, he could be deprived of his membership first - "This person is no longer a person living in the community."
Under the legal concept, of course there is a price to pay for killing people, but people like Bellatrix don't pay attention to the "International Statute of Secrecy" at all. They abide by the more ancient and primitive system, based on blood. The system that exists.
The Weasleys are also "pure-blood traitors", but unlike Sirius, none of them have been removed from the family tapestry. If Charlie is injured, the other Weasley brothers and even Arthur will protect him.
Sirius was alone. James, who was as close to him as a brother, was dead. Remus also knew very well that he was being used by Sirius, even though he was in a werewolf state at the time and could no longer distinguish between friend and foe.
In the era of the Kulia Congress, there was no class conflict, or in other words, class divisions were based on blood.
The civil law only protected Roman citizens. In addition to the residents who had lived within the city of the Seven Hills for generations, there were also some people who were later granted Roman citizenship through conquests, such as the Sabine and other areas. Roman civilians who migrated from other places for various reasons were not protected by civil law, even though they lived in Roman cities.
By about the 6th century BC, the number of common people in Rome had exceeded that of citizens. They did not have the rights of a clan, but had to pay taxes and perform military service. Then King Servius carried out reforms, and property classes replaced the previous divisions based on blood. grade. There were some clans that did not get along well. They became slaves and attached themselves to the nobles (rich family patriarchs) and became "protected people".
Generally speaking, these slaves and nobles were of the same race. Not only were they different from the provincials who became slaves due to bankruptcy in terms of blood relationship, they were also Roman citizens. When the nobles needed to vote, they could express their support.
By the time Octavian became administrator, not only the Curia Council, but also the Centuria Council had passed away. Sulla and Pompey had planned to restore the Centurian Assembly, and all matters that had not been discussed by the Senate in advance should not be raised before the people, because they felt that the judgment of wealthy and cool-headed people was more reasonable than that of rash poor people.
People who live relatively well-off lives will live a comfortable life than poor people. In theory, they can maintain peace of mind and body. But the ruin of the monarchy came from the greed of the king and the senators, who invaded the common land in large quantities.
Greed is one of the seven deadly sins and belongs to "sin", but it is not as good as "guilt" in "blood sin".
In fact, the mysterious man already has a lot. Perhaps the biggest difference between him and Sirius Black is that he was not born with it all.
Talents who are never satisfied are ambitious and will eventually be destroyed by their inflated ambitions.
Bella was loyal to the mysterious man, at least unlike Snape, who would change his patron when something went wrong. He also wanted to persuade Pomona to go with him.
If it weren't for his sanity, he wouldn't stand out among the fanatical Death Eaters...
People often compare fate to a storm. Only a few people can survive in the stormy waves.
But everyone who started the frenzy felt that he would become a survivor. Antony was finally brought back to Rome with Cleopatra, but the way he came back was not as a triumphant general, but as a corpse tied to a chariot and paraded through the streets.
In both good times and bad, intemperance is a sign of indiscretion.
But he is an indispensable character in the show.
In the ancient Greek play about Medea, "A wise man's cleverness is in vain if he cannot profit himself."
Now Pomona understood what Dumbledore meant when he praised Severus as a smart man.
He is no longer the young man who has good grades but is not good at riding a broomstick and wants to perform in front of the girl he likes.
There are many swallow-tailed dogs in the school. They behave very cutely in front of wizards and are no different from ordinary dogs. However, Kettleburn prohibits Muggle students from adopting them as pets.
This type of dog was not suitable for them to take into their home as they were very unfriendly to Muggles, and dogs were usually kept as family pets.
In the past, no one cared about it, resulting in many swallow-tailed dogs being abandoned. They will eat everything, including rubber tires.
When you are hungry, you will not be picky about food.
Times have changed, and modern people no longer have as scarce food as ancient people.
In the early days of Octavian's accession to the throne, Pompey the Younger organized a fleet to harass Rome's maritime trade, causing famine in Rome and almost causing unrest.
At that time, Rome was already relying heavily on grain shipped from the province of Egypt, and the Roman land that originally produced grain was planted with grapes.
Grapes are not just for eating, they can also be used to make wine.
Can these drunken nobles really make more reasonable judgments than the rash poor people?
Looking at the person who was pulling her away in a hurry, she felt like an animal that sensed danger before an earthquake. She panicked and didn't choose a way, but bystanders looked at her and laughed.
So Pomona shook off his hand and stood still.
He also stopped and looked back at her.
What should she say? Or should I perform a play with tears in my eyes?
Her mind went blank, like an actor who had forgotten all his lines when he came on stage and had no idea what to do next.
