** Roads were built in the straightest line that they could make, avoiding the big terrain obstacles. A Roman road was layered, but the construction process was very simple. First the two parallel trenches were built on either sides of the planned road, being dumped and built up in the space between the two ditches. **

** The impact on today’s society is that our roads now can be twisted and turned in any way. Also, all they did was dig ditches to make roads. But now we don’t have to only dig ditches, we can start a road on top of another. And those are called Highways. We also use cement instead of pebbles, stones, and rocks. **
