Empire of Rome was divided by the Emperor into two parts in 2nd century. The first part was West Rome, the capital city was Rome. And, it also was the center of Senate. The second part was East Rome, the capital was Byzantium. Later, it was changed the name to “Constantinople” in the age of Constantine.
The reason that the Rome was divided because the senators tried to avoid the conflict between the soldiers, but the effects of the divided turn bad, with the weakness in socialization, economics and the wars, Rome was invaded by German Colony and the Teutonic that came into the east, which made the Rome city to be abandoned in the 4th century.
Somehow, the Empire of Rome still one of the country that influences to the Western Countries nowadays such as the language, the laws and the architecture.

**William Shakespeare**
** William Shakespeare **
William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. His father was John Shakespeare and his mother was Mary Arden.At the age of 18 Shakespeare married, to Anne Hathaway. The marriage may have been forced, as Anne was already 3 months pregnant with a daughter, Susanna. This first child was followed by twins Hamnet and Judith in 1585.
The next 7 years of Shakespeare's life are a mystery.
Shakespeare fled his home and family to follow the life of an actor in London. London's theatres were closed in 1593 due to an outbreak of the plague. Shakespeare preferred to stay in London and he began to gain recognition as a writer with his work such as “Venus and Adonius” and “Rape of Lucrece”. He was fortunate to find a patron, Henry Wriothsley, Earl of Southampton, to support him in his writing. “Venus and Adonius” was wildly successful, and it was this work that first brought the young writer widespread recognition.
Apart from his longer poetry, Shakespeare also began writing his sonnets during this period, perhaps at the behest of Southampton's mother, who hoped to induce her son to marry.When the theatres reopened in 1594, Shakespeare was a playwright .He writing and performing for the theatre company .Shakespeare became an investor in the company.Finally,he retired around 1611 and died in 1616.

**Printing Press [Johann Gutenburg]**
Gutenberg’s invention
There was the printing before Gutenberg but it’s just woodblock technology. The advantage of his inventions was, dividing it in its own component such as lower and upper case letter. He cut each letter in to steel block. Then create a matrix by placing the punch on square block made of copper and striking it vertically.
Johannes Gutenberg is the “Father of Printing” In 13th Century. He invented the ink printing that composite suitably with print alloy. And his first successful invention in 1455 was bible, called “Gutenberg Bible or 42 line bible”.
For the Press Printing, Chinese used wood blocks for pressing on the paper but they were not strong enough, easily to wear out.
In 1438, Gutenberg had developed the way of printing, printing press, mold, ink printing and the paper for better using. In 1450, he invented the casting of iron block. So, it makes blocks of printing be more useful. It could be reused for several times. Not like wood blocks.
After his successful, book publishing. He found a terrible situation which was a numerous of debt he made by loaning the money for his printing press experiment.
