The Roman Empire built a vast network of roads connecting its territories. This extensive system of roads facilitated trade, military logistics, and communication across the empire. The most famous of these roads, the Appian Way, exemplified the engineering prowess of Roman builders. These roads enabled the efficient movement of goods, troops, and information, contributing to the economic and political stability of the empire. The saying "All roads lead to Rome" reflects the importance of this network in connecting diverse regions of the empire.
