“The creation of a mosaic was a complicated procedure that called for careful timing and teamwork. . . . Walls were painted with resin or tar before being covered with the first of three layers of plaster. . . . A sketch of the projected work was then made on the plaster to serve as a guide for the various artisans. The outermost layer of plaster, in which the pieces, or tesserae, of the mosaic would be set, was spread on only enough area to contain a day’s work. Some of the tesserae—small, carefully cut fragments of colored glass, marble, and semiprecious stones—were pressed into the wet plaster so that they projected at a slight angle. The stones thereby better reflected light and imbued the finished mosaic with a shimmering life of its own.”

6) Romany army was the backbone of the Roman Empire, They were well trained + Well equipped and organized to protect Rome but they were successful because how strong and organized, equipped and trained they were.

Explanation:

Answer:

5. Roughly 5,400 soldiers

6. The soldiers were trained to fight and work together as a unit.

Explanation:

Really, the highlights say it all, but I'll go more into detail about the imperial Roman army (is that what this is referring to?) anyhow.

The imperial army was founded in 30 BC by Augustus (who ruled until 14 AD). Under his reign there were 28 legions (roughly 150,000 soldiers in total). That increased to 33 legions by 200 AD (roughly 180,000 soldiers). The reason for the army's success (and why the Roman Empire was so large to begin with) was that the army's soldiers worked together as one to defeat their enemies.

3.Why do they happen on January 20?
4.Why is the inauguration held at the Capitol?
5.What is it like to move into the White House?

Answers

For 4, I’d say the best answer to that would be tradition.

There is no law or amendment set in place that designates the Capitol as the place where inaugurations are to be held.
For 2 I would say that we have inaugurations because it’s in the constitution and it is to make that presidents have enough time to transfer power peacefully
