Religion paper
The reason that people study history today is to better grasp they way in which people lived in the past and furthermore the impact that these events have on contemporary society today. In this paper I will examine the structure of government today and illustrate how history has shaped this. I will also attempt to show how the schisms in both the Catholic and Muslim faiths helped splinter separate religions and show their impact on contemporary society. The structure of the organized government that exists in the United States today can be attributed in part to the Persian Empire. The regime of Emperor Darius was responsible for controlling a vast empire that stretched 1865 miles end to end.

Additionally, our first notion of a constitution can be attributed to Rome. The Romans can be seen as have the first separation of powers system as power was invested in two consuls rather than one individual and there was a Senate. The Plebeians can also be seen as contributing to the political framework by being the first lobbyists or interest group, whose pressure helped to give them representation in the form of tribunals.
