Описание: Inspired by ‪@uzbekpatriot_‬

For much of ancient history, the Roman Empire was the strongest and most advanced civilization in the world (27 BCE until 476 CE aside from Eastern Roman Empire also known as Byzantine empire which continued till 1453 CE). The ancient Roman Empire, at its territorial height, included such regions as:

Center of empire: Italy (capital: Rome)

France

Spain

Portugal

Greece

Turkey

Egypt

Israel/Palestine

Jordan

Tunisia

Algeria

Morocco

Libya

Syria

United Kingdom (parts of it)


The empire achieved many successes in engineering (roads, aqueducts, architecture), law (Roman legal system) military conquest and culture (Roman festivals). — it absolutely would leave its mark on western civilization. It was ultimately divided into Western Roman Empire and Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine Empire), the fall of the west ended antiquity and began Middle Ages.
