Talk:Pax Romana
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why was my article "What was life like during the Pax Romana deleted?" (Further detail please)
In fact for Jews these were the times of grave oppression, massacres and ultimate destruction of their state and culture and attempted erasure of their very existence when Romans even renamed the province of Judea using a name of half-forgotten long extinct enemies of Jews to re-name the land as Palestine.
Did you know that.. The Pax Romana only created a facade of happiness and peace, there was actually great fighting and discomfort, but the leaders covered it up. Such examples can still be seen today in many countries...

[edit] Pronunciation
How is Pax romana pronounced? Can we include this in the article, please.
[edit] Usage of B.C.A and B.C
I noticed that somebody still change the year such as B.C.A and B.C. Would somebody please clarify the years? Thanks. Daniel's page ☎ 07:27, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- I think you meant BCE (Before Common Era) and BC (Before Christ). Both are acceptable and interchangeable in Wikipedia, as are CE (Common Era) and AD (Anno Domini - Year of our Lord). Personally, I prefer the secular naming convetion over the traditional one, and use it when I'm writing or contributing. You'll find both on the site, though. -- Gaius Octavius | Talk 16:57, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- I'm all for changing it to BCE and CE from BC and AD. -Pnkrockr 17:43, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
"Personally, I prefer the secular naming convetion over the traditional one" Ridiculous, you must be a member of the ACLU.
[edit] Rename page
I propose renaming the article due to a name clash with Pax Romana ICMICA/MIIC http://www.paxromana.org/
Pax Romana the historical period currently has no sources. What is its significance? Pax Romana the organisation is a longstanding active organisation. SmokeyJoe 00:57, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pax Romana
Was it actually a real policy or was the tranquility pure coincidence? Mallerd 13:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pax Americana
In this article, "Pax Americana" is described as having ended in 2001. In the Pax Americana article there is no mention of its end. The "2001" should be removed unless good reason is given. TornVictor 11:44, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
