Answer (3)
The answer that I came with was, **had an interest in the success of Rome, since they could improve their status by demonstrating their loyalty to their conquerors. **I just learned about this over the summer semester when I took western civilization. Roman is rich in history but then again I think all countries are. :)
Answer is: they had an interest in the success of Rome, since they could improve their status by demonstrating their loyalty to their conquerors.
The correct answer is D: conquered peoples had an interest in the success of Rome, which allowed them to improve their status through loyalty. Granting citizenship was a strategic move that helped maintain control and foster cooperation. This policy encouraged local elites and communities to contribute to Rome's military and economic efforts.
