, with thinkers like Confucius, Aristotle, and Gautama Siddhartha and the empires of Alexander the Great, Asoka, and Augustus (Rome) reaching their peak. Surprisingly, there is little direct correlation between two phenomena. As a result, historians tend to divide this period thematically into two different ages: the axial age of great thinkers, religions, and philosophies and the age of powerful empires. Historians give the two processes different labels to accentuate the different styles of transformations taking place. Selecting several examples from each age (and diverse geographic centers), discuss what factors typified the rise of these two ages, and offer your own speculation on why they are not more closely interrelated.
