Answer 2

The Answer is:

Slavery was a constant element of the Roman Empire. Slaves worked in families, agriculture, mining, the military, workshops, construction, and a variety of other occupations.

• Slaves made up as much as one-third of the Italian population and one-fifth of the empire's population, and the entire Roman polity was based on this foundation of forced labour.
• Slaves were society's lowest class, and even liberated felons enjoyed more privileges.
• Slaves had no rights at all, let alone legal status or personality. They couldn't form relationships or families, and they couldn't possess property.
• To all intents and purposes, they were simply the property of a certain owner, just like any other item of property - a building, a chair, or any other piece of property.
• The only time in Roman culture when everyone was treated fairly was during the Saturnalia festival when slaves were granted some freedoms that were often forbidden to them.
• Slaves were a prestige symbol for many of the Roman elite, and the more (and the more exotic) one possessed, the better, therefore affluent Romans frequently appeared in public accompanied by an entourage of up to 15 slaves.
