[QUOTE="SHARK, post: 191041, member: 1131"] Greetings! Well, thanks Alan, I'm glad that I have so inspired you!:) You've got some fine work here indeed! Thus, I shall hope to make several points;:) (I) The consistent quality and supply of food by such reliable agriculture would have dramatic impact throughout the Roman Empire. (1) The lifespan of the Roman citizen would increase significantly. This would in turn strengthen Roman society as a whole. (2) The increase in supply and quality of food would also significantly effect the animal populations of the empire. This would not only affect again as a multiplier the food available, but there would be more such animals--potentially many more--in which the Romans could increase for market value and multiply their profits through increased trade with other realms and peoples who would be eager to buy these increased animals, also of superior health, whether they were horses, cattle, hogs, goats, and so on. (3) Speaking just of food processes, the magical enhancements would free up not only excess labour, which would be available for the military, but it would also free up more time in general, for everyone. The wagoneers, the merchants, the packers, virtually everyone involved with growing, packing, transporting, and selling food, would by the magical enhancements, gain substantially more free time. (4) This extra free time would effect the society at large through a number of ways. Dating and courtship rituals and expectations would change. New industries and increased manufacturing specialization would increase, which would benefit the empire as a whole in many diverse ways. New expressions of entertainment would blossom, now that more people have more free time on their hands to enjoy enhanced games and contests being held in the Colliseum, and in great arenas around the empire. Thus, these are just a few effects to consider from the benefit of the increased supply and quality of the food throughout the empire.:) Semper Fidelis, SHARK [/QUOTE]
