How did the classical civilization of Rome develop?

There is not such a thing as Roman classical civilisation. There is not such a thing as classical civilisation either. The term is classical, period/age/era or classical antiquity. It refers to the cultural period in the history of the Mediterranean Sea when the culture of the Greeks and Romans became intermingled through the cultural influence of the former on the latter. It is therefore related to the Greco-Roman world. The Greeks also had a strong influence of the eastern part of the Roman Empire (the eastern Mediterranean) because they had ruled this area for several centuries before the arrival of the Romans. Greek was the lingual franca in this area. The education of Roman elite men was both in Latin and Greek and these men were fluent in Greek.


When did the Greece civilization begin and end?

The beginnings of Ancient Greece are typically located in the 12th century BC (or, BCE), although precise dates are impossible to give. The Greek Classical Age occurred between 500 and 350 BC (or, BCE), followed by the Hellenistic Period until approximately 150 BC (or, BCE) and then the period of Roman domination. The formal end of Ancient Greece is often tied to the closing of the Athenian Academy in 529 AD (or, CE).
