The Roman Empire was one of the greatest
empires in history. The Empire stretched from Britain in
the north to North Africa and Italy in the south. It
reached from the Iberian Peninsula to Asia Minor.
Rome applied its laws to all of its lands. Roman
ideals influenced the provinces under its control for
centuries after the final fall of the Empire. Even today,
Roman ideas of law and government are active in the
United States and Europe. Roman engineering and
architecture is used in buildings all over the Western
world.
