- Abstract
This article is a response to several studies about ancient Rome including, Augustan marriage laws, Roman religion, Roman civil war, and Roman empire. Augustan marriage laws were intrusions on some private and domestic realm. Several aspects of Roman religion were rebooted so that Romanized Italians can catch up and become members of the religious community in equal terms. The Roman problem that resulted from the late Augustus' republic was not the only problem that occurred during that time, because there had been two contradicting Roman sides in the previous civil war. The Romanness of the empire as a whole is described in terms of a container schema. It is a simple stereotype at the heart of Roman imperialism in Cicero's speeches.
