That was because the roman military need to travel from Rome to other cities quickly. Because of this, the roman military built the roads. The roads weren’t dirt ether. To be able to know were they were, the roads were marked with a pile of stones every mile. The military people weren’t the only people aloud to use the roads. The common people used them too. The roads were always strait. They didn’t turn and curve like today’s roads. But, obviously, roads are still used to this day. Like today’s roads, as shocking as it might sound, the Romans tried to make a self propelled chariot! Although it never made it off the drawing board, the thought that archeologists have found some of the blue print, is amazing enough.
