Romans, Europeans and "New Russians"

Imagine a "new Russian." What does a person do, when he suddenly becomes rich? First, he buys things. Then he travels to other countries to get more things. Then he realizes it isn't enough, and tries to learn what other people know: he starts going to museums and theatres, to famous places and cities, tries to read and study more and if it's too late for himself, he looks for the best school for his children, making them learn foreign languages and study abroad. The most fashionable language in Russia is English, since it's the most popular one in international communication. But a hundred or two years ago it was French, and in Peter's times – German, and still earlier it was Greek. Keep that in mind, and let's have a look at the rest of Europe.

To be an educated person in Medieval Europe, one had to know Latin. Learned men spoke the language to each other and wrote manuscripts in it, although by that time Latin had long been a dead language. Still, it remained, so to say, the language of international scientific communication. Why? Let's move still further into the past, when Rome was a powerful empire. We know that the Romans conquered lots of lands and peoples, and moved as far as the British Isles, Africa and Asia. But if Egypt and oriental countries had already created their prominent and highly developed cultures, European nations remained on a rather primitive level. They were for the most part illiterate tribes. Therefore, wherever the Romans came, they brought their alphabet, calendar, laws and traditions. Afterwards the Roman Empire vanished, being ruined by some of the same tribes, but culture has its own ways of development that are always progressive, no matter who conquers who. Thus, the former European barbarians started to create national cultures of their own, basing them on what had already been invented by the Romans. They used the Latin alphabet for their native writing, and as to science and philosophy, they introduced only Latin-based terms, just to seem more significant and wise. Knowledge of Latin, due to sources of knowledge in general, became fashionable. That is how lots of Latin (actually, Greek) roots, Latin suffixes and prefixes as well as their inconvenient spelling filled European languages, remaining and working in them ever after. Whatever new terminology humanity invents on the way of its progress, the words of Ancient Greece live on m them: photosynthesis, anthropomorphous, telepathy, hydrodynamics, and so on.
