Too lazy to do anything else; can we add "Pax" to the technology section under vaporizers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.67.83.202 (talk) 16:40, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not just in the travel industry, we use "pax" to signify the number of people coming into our restaurant as well. Don't know if that is just us being strange though.


Pax is also the name given to the holy kiss at the eucharist. I'll maybe add something about here. --Gareth Hughes 03:00, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A form of tax

[edit]

Pax was the tax imposed to any merchant who wished to use a Roman built road, by Roman soldiers. The tax would ensure safe (peaceful) passage between Roman districts. The term Pax became synonymous with "imperial", or the imperial tax that would help ensure a peaceful empire. Collections decreased significantly when Hadrian came to power, due to a less expansionist platform that originally paid the Roman elite. This absence in funding was replaced by a higher Pax, hence discouraging trade, which may have led to the end of Rome's Golden Age.

Pax Romana

[edit]

Is not this the original historical precedence, and all other versions of the term only to be considered analogies?

Pax Islamica

[edit]

Does anybody know anything about this term? Srnec 20:12, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that Pax Islamica and other terms are possibly not notable (=not a standardized/frequently used term) enough to be mentioned. For instance: "Pax Asiana" (1,110 google hits), "Pax Arabica" (1,040), "Pax Islamica" (825), "Pax Sovietica" (653), "Pax Africana" (626), etc. (=not many google hits). An academic search however could give other or similar results. Sijo Ripa 20:55, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I had never heard of any paces besides the Romana, Britannica, Islamica, and Americana before coming upon them at Wikipedia. Srnec 21:10, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
