HOW FAR HAVE WE GONE IN CIVILIZATION?

     
Ancient Civilization
     Since the early times, men have started to make different advances in their culture, technology and civilization.    
Until then, these advancements were adopted, learned, spread and later improved for the betterment of humanity.  

Roman Empire
     
     Different civilizations rose and fell but still, their contributions remained in our hearts and in our minds.  From their inventions, discoveries and studies, to their cultures, beliefs and traditions and on how they govern their place.  They made so many ways to help improve the lives of us--- HUMAN BEINGS.  We have learned a lot through studying their history and we can really say that it helped change our way of living. 






     In my own perspective, all the advanced technologies that we have now is all because of the contributions in the different fields of the ancient people.  From time to time, our world is continuously evolving and so is our technology.  The early truly imparted a lot to us.  



BEFORE
AFTER

   I can really say that the world today is very different from our world before.  In the early times, there were only stones used as weapons, horses for transportation, skin from animals for clothing, fruits and animals for food, caves and tree houses for shelter and herbal plants for medicines.  But in our situation today, we now have different buildings, infrastructures and houses  built in cement for shelter, weapons made of metals, different designs and styles for clothing, airplanes, trains and cars for transportation, junk food, soft drinks, canned goods, candies, ice cream and other food with preservatives, different advanced gadgets for communication, and tablets, syrups, and capsules for our medicines. 





We made ourselves civilized persons.  We have truly become a lot better than before.  Because of necessity, we have gone a lot in this civilization.  From a green world, we have made a grey and black one. 



     What we have now is way too different from what we have before.  But of course, we cannot achieve all of this without the help of the ancient civilizations.  Indeed, time travels so fast and so are the contributions of our civilizations.  Even though these civilizations already died, still, their contributions live at present.
