Hey there!
To explain the answer to your question, Rome's army made Rome a great
Mediterranean power because they were ready for war at all time! <span> Any </span>army<span> attempting to attack </span>Rome<span> would be at risk of attack from the other side of the mountains.
Hope this helped and have a great day! (:

Peter the Great established St. Petersburg, his window on the west. He spread his ideas of westernization, and expanded the country.
He also established beard laws, you had to pay a tax in order to keep your beard (not necessarily positive though)
