Think about how we planned this trip to Rome. When you have a plan that is important to you, you feel excited about it and proud of your ideas of what you want to do. Well the Roman\u2019s plan was that they wanted to spread out and take over the world, conquer the peoples of other lands. When they did this they made many of the people they took over Roman citizens. This is how they became an <strong>Empire<\/strong> instead of just one country. Everywhere the Roman armies went; they brought their <strong>culture<\/strong> with them. They took their <strong>customs<\/strong>, laws, religions, and their language with them too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is said that <strong>Ancient<\/strong> Rome thought of itself as \u2018Caput Mundi,\u2019 \u2018Head of the World.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_190\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-190\" style=\"width: 272px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-190\" src=\"http:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV45_MapRomanRoadsItaly.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"272\" height=\"240\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-190\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;All Roads Lead to Rome&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201c \u2018All Roads Lead to Rome\u2019 is another famous saying that tells a lot about the way the Romans built their buildings and roads. Building is a kind of art called \u2018<strong>architecture<\/strong>.\u2019 You know the <strong>Ancient<\/strong> Greeks created great <strong>architecture<\/strong>, beautiful buildings. But the Romans did even more and on a larger scale than the Greeks. The Romans were great road builders and their idea was to connect all the roads to a central point. All Roman roads actually did lead back to Rome!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Romans also developed new building materials called <strong>concrete<\/strong>. <strong>Concrete<\/strong> helped them build the roads and other <strong>architectural<\/strong> structures.\u00a0 They invented the Roman <strong>arch<\/strong>, which was a structure that was curved on top. The <strong>arch<\/strong> was so important because it meant that a much bigger room and space could be made. Many more people could fit inside the space. Roman <strong>architecture<\/strong> led to making buildings at a new level, past where the <strong>Ancient<\/strong> Greeks left off. Because of how hard and durable their <strong>concrete<\/strong> <strong>invention <\/strong>was, they could span great domes, build bridges, and <b>aqueducts<\/b> that carried water from the source where it came from to the cities where it was used.\u201d[one_half]<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_175\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-175\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-175\" src=\"http:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV30_KemptenHypocaustum.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV30_KemptenHypocaustum.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV30_KemptenHypocaustum-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-175\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ancient Roman Concrete Invention<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>[\/one_half] [one_half_last]<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_152\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-152\" style=\"width: 275px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-152\" src=\"http:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV07_Aqueduct.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-152\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ancient Roman Aqueducts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>[\/one_half_last]<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_148\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-148\" style=\"width: 251px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-148\" src=\"http:\/\/artedco.org\/lesson06\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/TV03_Ruins.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"251\" height=\"201\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-148\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ancient Roman Forum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cNow, Lucia, we arrived at the <strong>Roman Forum<\/strong>.
