Throughout the course of the Roman Republic, they were threatened by many different countries around them. They created a mighty military that crushed the Latin states. After that, they waged a war against the Samnites, and were victorious. They had a significant portion of Italy as a result, and came into direct contact with the Greeks. The Roman's culture was greatly affected by the Greeks (such as adapting gods). Later on, the Romans crushed the Greeks, and had most of Italy under control. Their conquests were successful because of their great military strategy and their effectiveness of their ruling. For example, they gave their conquered civilians full Roman status, and gave them a stake in success. They also crushed rebellions without mercy, and used force when necessary.

They also built interconnecting roads that helped them move ideas, people, and weapons/food across Italy to fortified positions. Rome essentially mobilized the manpower of Italy for war.…

Critical thinking leaves no room for emotions and other bad habits that hinder thinking. The emotions that once drove my thinking have been replaced with a drive to move past emotion and consider what lies beyond. Critical thinking is an important source in overcoming obstacles that might hinder good and reasonable conclusions or solutions to problems and issues.…

The development of critical thinking involves six stages that build upon one another as one advances their level of consciousness. The first stage is the unreflective thinker who inherently is unaware that they have a thought process. An unconscious person on this level tends to make decisions from a reactive viewpoint. Consequently, unreflective thinkers…
Critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action.

The general audience I would like to target in this particular essay would have to be my fellow classmates, and instructor. What I feel I am expressing in this essay about “The American Culture” by Deborah Tannen will be in relation to any and all participating in this assignment as well as having read this particular article.

Egocentric thinking is seeing everything in relation to oneself. Such individuals are self-centered and concerned about their interests. This impedes the use of critical thinking. It is very difficult for many people to identify this characteristic within themselves. They are closed-minded to the thoughts and ideas of others. This damages their critical thinking abilities. Open-minded thinking is one of the fundamental critical thinking skills. The best defense to minimizing thinking egocentrically is to be aware of it and to be mindful of the needs of others. In essence, to continually strive towards viewing ideas and concepts from multiple viewpoints.…
