Noble land owners gained power in Greek city states through the growth of farmlands and through hoplite warfare. Landowners developed their farmland and achieved economic elevation through the trade and sale of their goods. Wealthy landowners were also able to purchase a set of armor, meaning they could participate in hoplite warfare. Their achievements in war gave them glory and social status.

Why did the great landowners had too much power when peter the great was ruling?

During Peter the Great's reign, the great landowners, or nobility, wielded significant power due to their control over vast estates and serfs, which provided them with substantial economic resources. Peter's reforms, aimed at modernizing Russia, relied heavily on these landowners for military and administrative support, inadvertently reinforcing their influence. Additionally, the nobility benefited from the privileges granted by Peter, such as tax exemptions and land grants, which further solidified their authority in society. Consequently, their power often overshadowed the central government's efforts to centralize and strengthen the state.

What trem refers to a class of wealthy landowners in the early republican of roman society?

Most of the wealthy landowners were patricians. However, the term was not related to landownership. They were the aristocracy. They held a monopoly of offices of state and had exclusive access to the priesthoods which played an important role in the regulation of public life. They were large landowners by virtue of their wealth, but their status was defined by their position within the Roman state, the priesthoods and their claim of origin to the foundation of Rome, rather than land ownership as such. Although this group had been called aristocracy by Greek writers and modern historians, it was very different than the medieval aristocracy.
