unproductive, after Islam had hanged all the "ringleaders", it forced
all powers violently into its service, into the most bitter slavery. On
that Frobenius says: "The Romans reached their height in colonial
undertakings through giving the subjugated peoples forced labour
in the sense ofwork opportunities. The Roman only collected taxes,
