O QUE SIGNIFICA FORTRESS EM INGLÊS

Fortificação

Fortification

As fortificações são construções militares ou edifícios concebidos para a defesa de territórios na guerra e também utilizados para solidificar o domínio em uma região durante o tempo de paz. Os seres humanos construíram trabalhos defensivos por muitos milhares de anos, em uma variedade de projetos cada vez mais complexos. O termo é derivado do latino fortis e facere. Desde a história muito antiga até os tempos modernos, as paredes têm sido uma necessidade para as cidades sobreviverem em um mundo em constante mudança de invasão e conquista. Alguns assentamentos na Civilização do Vale do Indo foram as primeiras cidades a serem fortalecidas. Na Grécia antiga, grandes paredes de pedra foram construídas na Grécia micênica, como o antigo sítio de Micenas. Um Phrourion era uma coleção fortificada de edifícios que servia de guarnição militar e era o equivalente ao castellum romano ou à fortaleza inglesa. Essas obras serviram principalmente a propósito de uma torre de vigia, para proteger certas estradas, passagens e terrenos prejudiciais ao reino. Embora menor do que uma fortaleza real, essas construções agiram como uma guarda de fronteira em vez de um ponto forte real para assistir e manter a fronteira.

Fortifications are military constructions or buildings designed for the defense of territories in warfare, and also used to solidify rule in a region during peace time. Humans have constructed defensive works for many thousands of years, in a variety of increasingly complex designs. The term is derived from the Latin fortis and facere. From very early history to modern times, walls have been a necessity for cities to survive in an ever changing world of invasion and conquest. Some settlements in the Indus Valley Civilization were the first cities to be fortified. In ancient Greece, large stone walls had been built in Mycenaean Greece, such as the ancient site of Mycenae. A Phrourion was a fortified collection of buildings being used as a military garrison and is the equivalent of the Roman castellum or English fortress. These construction mainly served the purpose of a watch tower, to guard certain roads, passes, and lands detrimental to the kingdom. Though smaller than a real fortress, these constructions acted as a border guard rather than a real strongpoint to watch and maintain the border.
