I beleive hat the U.S. is not declining, yet. I believe that we will out live the Roman Empire and remain as one of the more major World Powers, I say this because we have better medicine, weapons, and Allies around the world willing to help us to times of need. An example of us remaining resilient was during the Great Depression, I am using this example because many people thought that the economy/stocks market would crash and a new system would but like the stock markets we came back stronger. We achieved this through our Allies helping us and giving up in the government to do the correct and best thing for our Nation. Another example of us being resilient is during World War 1 and 2, the Romans I can assure you did not have technological weapons such as guns, tanks, bombs, planes, or any of the other things, except for ships; the Romans also didn't experience the bombing of Pearl Harbor like we Americans did. This is why I think that we will outlive the Roman Empire and Become even more powerful then we already are.
Today in Western Civilization class I witnessed other groups present their Greek Civilization projects, the first group talked about the different governments that were created, they did this by becoming the leaders that created the different governments and discussed it as if it were a meeting and there were sides; I thought that it was a fun and playful twist to the project. The next project was performed by Ben and Will and they did the Olympics, they discussed how they started, the traditions, the events, and even reenacted some of them (they were poorly done), but they were able to get the events for the most part correct and they were also fun to watch how they were performed.
