Roman Infrastructure

Roman infrastructure refers to the advanced network of public works that facilitated transportation, trade, and communication across the Roman Empire. This includes over 250,000 miles of roads designed for durability and efficient travel, many of which are still in use today. They also built aqueducts to transport freshwater to cities, monumental bridges, and sophisticated drainage systems for sanitation. Their engineering innovations allowed for the quick movement of armies, goods, and information, supporting economic growth and stability. These infrastructures reflect Roman ingenuity and their emphasis on connecting and strengthening their vast empire.
