Go farther than the agora and take a hike, my friend! Try the Apennine Mountains, they run along the length of the Italian peninsula (about 850 miles long). The Tiber river runs through them in central Italy.

Pax Romana // INTERVIEW
Interviewer/Me: As hard as it is to maintain the empire already, did you think that the Pax Romana made it the easiest to keep in place?
Augustus/Emperor: Most definitely.
I/M:How so?
A/E: The empire is almost too large to control so if keeping it peaceful throughout could keep it safe and possibly give time to improve for times that invaders come.
I/M: What are some important things you have managed to add or make better?
A/E: Some things I have done was changing some taxes and laws, starting many building projects, and creating provinces with governors.

One monument in Rome is the Colosseum. The Colosseum is an Amphitheatre and is considered to be one of the greatest works of architecture and engineering. Though the average number of spectators is 65,000 it can contain an amount of 50,000 to 80,000 so at least 10. This monument played an important role in performances for Rome's entertainment.
