Chapter 2949 Pros and cons

In this case, the more you learn, the more Jia Xu felt that Rome was difficult to deal with. This empire, called the Great Qin by the Han Dynasty and called itself Rome, really launched a charge to the peak, and its momentum was so strong that even the Han Dynasty could hardly suppress the other party.

Perhaps feeling Jia Xu's worries, Chen Xi couldn't help but smile and said, "With that being said, if you really want to say it, the Roman civilization has a fatal flaw. It is true that they are extremely powerful now, but their flaws are also extremely obvious."

"They are still following our old path in spring and autumn. Although it has changed, the most obvious place has not changed." Jia Xu nodded and said.

The Roman citizenship system was changed to the Spring and Autumn Period of China, which was the national system. This system was abolished in the Central Plains, and the Qin Dynasty even pushed the six countries out and completely ended it. This system has many benefits, but also many disadvantages, and the core is the number of Chinese people.

The treatment and obligations enjoyed by Roman citizens were actually similar to those of the Chinese people in the Spring and Autumn Period. Their ranks were considered to be the knight class or the samurai class in later generations. Such low-ranking nobles who could clearly be classified as "scholars".

In the Spring and Autumn Period, China also had this system, and there were also cases where the Chinese people directly expelled the monarch because the monarch did too much. At that time, the Chinese people had serious obligations and powers.

It can even arbitrate the abolition of the king, aristocratic disputes, and participate in politics and politics. It can be said that the Chinese people at that time had no problem saying that aristocrats were actually not a problem, but later this class disappeared or was banned.

From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, the influence of these people has been eliminated. Although some rulers do mean to maintain their rule, the core lies in population issues. By the pre-Qin period, the Chinese class basically disappeared. By the time of the pre-Han period, the disciples and soldiers gradually disappeared. Many things that were very popular in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period gradually disappeared in history.

These things have both pros and cons, but from the perspective of unified law, they are indeed harmful. Of course, now that the feudal division is opened, the Chinese class will inevitably appear. This is difficult to avoid. Those who break up the soil and build land in the wilderness, and those who explore with the first generation of pioneers will inevitably enjoy some special treatment.

These treatments are naturally universal among this group of people, but they are not so common on a large scale. However, with the continuous development of China, even if the concept of Chinese people is released again, it will disappear at most three generations after the development period.

After all, they have experienced great unification and understand that the existence of the Chinese class has on the whole, and will gradually be eliminated if it can be eliminated.

Rome still maintains their civic system. With Jia Xu's eyes, this system will drag them to death sooner or later. Moreover, when Rome has developed to such a big age, citizens can live like nobles. To put it bluntly, isn't it just to exploit tens of millions of barbarians?

Welfare is easy to distribute when it is distributed, but it will be very difficult when you want to cancel it. Once one day Rome cannot continue to maintain the existing welfare for its citizens, I am afraid that Rome will not be far from collapse. If Rome wants to continue to maintain the existing welfare, it must exploit the barbarians under its rule, and this is the root of the contradiction.

Even if the civic system is opened and the capable people among the barbarians are allowed to enter the civic class, they can only delay the arrival of the overthrow of the Romans, rather than truly solve this problem. The civic system and the Chinese people system are themselves a very obvious system of exploitation.

Even if exploitation is everywhere, implicit exploitation and obvious exploitation are more likely to be targeted. This is an important reason why most families strive to maintain a good reputation locally. Even exploiters can actually wear kind coats.

However, this method of the citizen system cannot wear a coat. After all, the attractive thing about this system is the kind of benefits you get when you become a citizen, what kind of power you have, etc. If you whitewash them, once you whitewash them, the system will be over.

What's worse is that this system is blatantly exploiting the non-citizen class. It is precisely because of this exploitation that all Roman citizens live like a person. It is precisely because of this system that Roman citizens also support this country in their hearts.

On the other hand, it is also the same thing. However, Rome is now powerful and the barbarians have no choice but to do so. However, the root of disaster has been buried long ago. Unless Roman citizens have been strong, once they are overturned, it will most likely be difficult for Rome to climb up again.

"Yes, so many people are more interested in digging out the history of the Romans." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, after all, there are related records from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and the systems used by the Romans were particularly similar to those used by their ancestors at that time. Everyone looked so similar, it would be strange if they didn't want to be wrong.

"However, I think there is nothing else to do with the progress in this regard except for forging history." Jia Xu said disdainfully. He was very unhappy with the group of classical scholars who studied history and tried to find ways to verify it. Jia Xu hated fake history because this cost could easily leave great trouble for future generations.

"Look at this first. I think even if there is a crisis in Rome, it is not a matter of this generation." Chen Xi naturally changed the topic. He was actually very interested in the Han Dynasty's investigation of Roman history.

"This generation has no hope at all. The emperor Severu is not simple in his ability or courage, and his subordinates are not bad. There is also the Senate assisting him, so there is no hope at all." Jia Xu said casually, "Speaking of the Rome system is really good."

"I think you are probably focusing on the restriction of the emperor in the Roman Senate." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "That cannot be said bad, but it cannot be said too good. Like our current era, it is indeed good that the eldest princess is completely unintentional, but not other eras."

"It can only be said that each has its pros and cons." Chen Xi concluded, "The Roman system and our system have both advantages and disadvantages, but they have been verified for hundreds of years. It is not only not good for us, but may also have disadvantages."
