Thank you
You're welcome.
Yes, you are correct. The Roman Empire's system of government was similar to many of today's Western European governments in the aspect that Rome established civil law that detailed citizens' rights and the legal process. This similarity can be observed in modern Western European governments where there are established legal systems that protect citizens' rights and provide a framework for the legal process.
To arrive at this answer, you can analyze the options given and compare them to the characteristics of today's Western European governments. The first option, establishing civil law, aligns with the concept of legal systems in contemporary Western European governments. The other options are not as applicable. Roman Senators being appointed based on wealth and class, as well as Roman rulers being appointed based on heredity and noble bloodlines, do not necessarily correspond to the merit-based or democratic systems found in most Western European governments today. Only the last option, allowing only free, adult Roman male citizens to vote, is specific to the Roman Empire and does not necessarily reflect the inclusiveness of voting rights in modern Western European governments.
