* Note: you can not exclude religion from history. Many historic events are due to and caused by a religious conflict or issue (Ex. Henry 8th separating England from Rome). Romans absorbed many cultures and beliefs. Religion is the back bone to many cultures and peoples and to exclude it would mean to exclude these peoples/ cultures who helped shape and formed our history world wide.*
