The Empire of Rome dominated most of Europe and much of Africa and the Middle East. What is often overlooked though is the key role Rome's geography played in it's rise to power. There were two mountain ranges, the Alps and the Apennines protected Rome from invasion because it acted as a natural barrier to prevent armies from invading in those areas. This also forced enemies to push through narrow passages, allowing time for Rome to set up and defend. The fertile land in Rome also allowed for extensive amounts of agriculture. It is often cited that the soil in Rome is some of the most fertile soil in Europe. Finally Rome benefited from it position, allowing to become a center for trade.
