Rome Emperor Campaign Assignment<\/span><\/h1>\n
 <\/div>\n

Objective: Research the Roman Emperors and apply one of the political lives to a modern campaign speech.<\/span><\/h2>\n
 <\/div>\n

Instructions: Research one of the Roman Emperors and using what is known about their political lives, write a campaign speech for today, referencing their accomplishments (or terrorizings), as potential campaign promises. In other words, if one of the emperors burned down Atlanta because it was a mortal enemy of the Roman state, then you could reference in your speech how Atlanta needs to be stopped and if need be, burned to the ground. See what I mean? You can use anything from their personal and professional histories.<\/span><\/h3>\n
 <\/div>\n
Using their actual political goals and stories, write a 400-600 word speech declaring why you (as the Roman emperor you have chosen) should be named as the new Emperor of Rome. (You\u2019re not emperor yet, so this is your speech to become emperor\u2026yes, I know that\u2019s not how it *actually* goes, but let\u2019s have some fun)<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Consider these things: how do politicians address scandals, political platforms, wants and desires in their speeches. What should be said to convince the people of this empire that you (as the Roman Emperor) would be perfect for them? You may want to review some speeches to get a few ideas of what people say to guarantee the masses this is a good idea, if you can find some from that time.<\/div>\n
So, how would you approach the people of Rome and its territories to convince them you should be emperor? Knowing what you found out about your emperor, write your speech to play up your strengths as a possible candidate and address their needs as well. You can be serious or funny, as long as you are persuasive and can convince your (possible) future citizens.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
