How did Cato end every speech he ever gave in the Senate? Why was he so insistent?
Cato always ended his speech with, “And my opinion is that Carthage must be destroyed.” After visiting Masinissa, the king of Numidia, to investigate the situation, Cato discovered that the city had also become rich and prosperous and thus a challeng to Rome.
What law did Tiberius Gracchus get passed that caused the nobles to hate him?
Each noble could have 500 acres of public land for his own use and 350 more for each son. However, the reamainder of the land would be equally divided among poor citizens, as it had been in earlier times.
