Roman Conquest

The Roman Conquest refers to the expansion of the Roman Empire through military and political means from the 3rd century BC until the 5th century AD. It involved invading and assimilating various territories across Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia, establishing Roman law, culture, and infrastructure. Key events include the subjugation of Gaul by Julius Caesar and the invasion of Britain. The conquests helped spread Latin language and Roman customs, ultimately influencing the development of Western civilization. The legacy of these conquests is still evident in modern languages, legal systems, and architectural styles.
