You explain a significant ideology using some primary source evidence and describe how it worked in classical society.
You provide a detailed analysis of multiple aspects of the ideology using relevant primary sources, and clearly explain how it connected to the wider classical world.
You show insight into the ideology by finding patterns, explaining why things happened the way they did, and thoughtfully considering what the sources reveal and what they hide.
