History has shown that Rome fell because of the Roman army, foreign invasions, and disasters and diseases. One of the primary reasons for the fall of Rome was the Roman army. “Because of negligence and laziness”, they stopped having training drills, and they also got rid of their armour piece by piece. Since the soldiers rarely wore armour, breastplates and helmets began to seem heavy. This made the Romans prone to injuries and “because they have no armor, think about running and not fighting” (Document B).
Snow White tries to escape but is captured, summoned to the tower, where she is locked away for many years. Many viewers criticized the performance of Kristen Stewart who played Snow White in the film. Stewart is most known for her role as Bella Swan in the recently popular Twilight series.
