ACOUP - Roman Roads

In this post, Bret provides a brief overview of Rome’s road system, through the lens of the question, “Was the Roman road system unique and, if so, how?” He examines this by first looking at what sort of road systems preceded Rome’s, and then examines the construction, expanse, and purpose of Rome’s specific system.
