The Han and Roman empires were both agriculture based societies ruled by an emperor whose populations were given citizenship in return for employment in public works project and enlisting in the countries’ armies.
The Han and Roman empires were both ruled by emperors. However the Han emperor was considered to be divine and more autonomous than the Roman emperor. This is due to the fact that the people believed the Han emperor to have the mandate of heaven. The mandate of heaven was a practice established by a previous Chinese dynasty which stated that the emperor was given power to rule by the supreme deity. The Han emperor was also more autonomous than the Roman emperor as unlike his Roman counterpart the Han emperor did not have to seek the approval of the senate in his decisions. The Roman Senate was compromised of wealthy landowners who wanted to take part in the government, this practice first started when the Roman Empire began.
The Han and Roman empires were both agricultural societies. The Han Empire farmed along the fertile silt bearing flood plains of the Yellow River and the Roman Empire farmed in the valleys of the Italian peninsula. Unlike the Han Empire the Roman Empire conducted a lot of trade inside the empire. This is due to the Mediterranean Sea which connected the empire and its great size. The Roman Empire however did not conduct long distance trading like the Han Empire. The Han Empire traded silk along the Silk Road. The Han Empire did not conduct any other trade due to its geography, on one side it was surrounded by the Gobi desert and the Himalayas while on the other side there was the Pacific Ocean.
The Han and Roman Empire gave the populations citizenship in return for employment in either the army or in public works project. In Han china citizenship was given to all people, there were no slaves, however all the citizens had to work for the government in building public works projects for two years. Open citizenship was granted in the Chinese empire as it allowed the government to increase its tax base. Unlike the Han Empire in Rome, conquered populations and their children were given citizenship only if they served in the army for twenty six years. The public works projects were built by the Roman army. The emphasis was on joining the army in Rome, as it needed a large army to protect its borders.
