One of the last countries to be conquered by the Romans was France or Gaul. In no other country did slave labour replace that of the frumen on such a large scale. No other country in the ancient world had so many slaves and Roman did. The slave system reached its peak in the Roman Empire. Large farms in Italy were worked entirely by gains of slaves. Unlike the ancient Eastern Greeks, where the land was mainly cultivated by peasants, in Rome very many slaves were engaged in agriculture.

In the 1 st century BC and in the 1 st century AD slavery spread widely in the Roman Empire. With the help of the army the slave owners put down the up sings and actually they defeated. Government bodies issued acts beneficial to the explotize. The disobedient slaves were severely punished. Thus whatever was produced by the slaves beyond the needs on themselves was taken away by their masters. The slaves were given food and clothing so they wouldn’t die of sthuation or cold. The slave owners appropriated almost all the results of the slaves’ labour. Slavery was the first and the most inhuman form of explotaion. The slaves could be bought and sold, they could be exchanged or given away like any other thing, they could be kept in chains, whipped and put to death. He slaved possessed neither land nor tools and were themselves the property of the slave owners. The slave owners made up the minoity of the population, but owned the land, the tools, buildings and slaves. The main were: the slaves and the slave owners. It was a slave society, devided into antoganistic classes. Roman society differed greatly from that of the Celts. The Romans could make use of British food for their own army fighting the Gauls.Ģ000 years ago, while the Celts were still living in tribes, the Romans were the most powerful people in the world. Under the Celts Britain had become an important food producer because of its mild climate. The Celts used cattle to pull their ploughs and this meant that richer, heavier land could be fromed. The British Celts were giving them food and allowing them to hide in Britain. The Romans had invaded because the Celts of Britain were working with the Celts of France against them. The Romans mispronounced this word and called the island “Britannia”. The name Britain comes from the word “Pretani”, the Greco-Roman word for the inhabitants of Britain. Latin borrowings in the English language. The word “Garberian” in old times and today. King Alfred and the Celts after the Romans have left.
