The gap between the establishment of Rome's first province outside mainland Italy (Sicily in 241 BC) and Roman control of the entire Mediterranean is little more than two centuries. With the annexation of Egypt in 30 BC, the Mediterranean becomes for the first time one political unit - a large lake within a single empire.]]> 2020-10-26 16:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/cameronfinch/dbxqyql36up0p3du/wish/862565895 bradyhall https://padlet.com/cameronfinch/dbxqyql36up0p3du/wish/862578684 There are currently 21 countries that surround the Mediterranean Sea.

For 3000 years this has been both the central sea of western civilization and the trade link to the riches of the east. Now, in the 16th century, the centre of gravity shifts to the Atlantic coast of Europe. America is the source of untold new wealth from the west; and Portuguese navigators have opened up a less hazardous route by sea to to the east.]]> 2020-10-26 16:47:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cameronfinch/dbxqyql36up0p3du/wish/862595878 bradyhall https://padlet.com/cameronfinch/dbxqyql36up0p3du/wish/862607531 The Mediterranean Sea is one of the biggest sea's in the world.
