Rome is in the center of Everything Click Here Macedonia Rome (the city) Mesopotamia Rome is located on the Italian Peninsula. Rome is located in the Western Mediterranean basin. Greece is located in the eastern Mediterranean basin Egypt Sparta Athens

The Italian Peninsula All roads lead to “Roma” Click me Rome starts and is centered on the Italian Peninsula (modern Italy - “the boot”) Rome is protected to the north by the Alps Mountains Italy has two river valleys in which to grow: (1) the Po River and (2) the Tiber River Rome is surrounded by water (the Mediterranean)

The five major advantages for Roman civilization The five major advantages for Roman civilization (location, location, location!) Click Here The central location of Italian peninsula in the western Mediterranean basin creates a natural crossroads for trade and cultural exchange. Rome is distant from other eastern Mediterranean powers during its early years. The Mediterranean Sea provides protection and offers ports for trading, The Alps provide protection from invading land forces, The Po and Tiber River valleys provide optimum areas for settlement

Let the stealing (I mean “cultural diffusion”) begin! Click Here Roman civilization does not have its own religion or mythology at first. Roman religion is instead based on Greek religion as passed down possibly from Livius Andronicus (a freed Greek slave between 272 to 207 BCE/BC. Just like Greek gods and goddesses, Roman gods and goddesses provided explanations of natural phenomena, human qualities, and life events Unlike Greek mythology, Roman mythology influences western symbols, art, architecture, literature, politics, and culture Romans create multiple additional gods for almost every aspect of daily life) Look familiar?
