Answer 1

The process that influenced the most on the movement of people, goods, and ideas between East and West during the time of the Roman Empire as A) immigration from Asia and North Africa. This can be supported by the fact that, in Asia's case, archaeological evidence suggests that high-quality glass from Roman manufacturers were exported to many parts of Asia. In Africa's case, important African origin figures such as emperor Septimius Severus can be noted, with a reign characterized by architectural achievements and military campaigns.
