             The Roman Empire is a civilization that can never be forgotten. It can be attributed for giving the modern world the building blocks that make up many of our present societies. It gave the world a basis for many of the world's modern languages and literature. The Roman Empire also made great strides in the great fields of agriculture, art, government, and of course military operations.
