Ancient Way
Ancient Roman roads were a necessary element in the growth and development of the Roman Empire. Thanks to these roads, the Romans provided a safe and fast movement area to their armies in large areas. These ways have also been indispensable for communication and communication. From an economic point of view, the ancient Roman roads enabled the development of food and goods trade to Rome and the distribution and distribution of Roman goods over a very wide area. In the heyday of the Roman Empire, the ancient Roman road network covered 85.004 km of roads and consisted of 372 connections. The construction of Ancient Roman roads, called viae in Latin, was necessary for military, commercial, and political reasons, and the Romans gained great experience in making and maintaining a network of these roads. Although ancient Roman roads were built to transport soldiers and military equipment from one place to another, these roads were made for horse carts as the main vehicle. Thanks to these roads, Roman military legions could travel quickly and safely from the country to the Roman borders. Thus, these roads became the biggest factor that ensured the security and stability of the empire. On the other hand, they also caused the collapse of the Roman Empire before they entered the Middle Ages. The barbarian tribes, who were the enemies of the Romans, came to Roman lands through these roads and settled down and took over their administration. With the disappearance of the Roman Empire, most of these roads continued to communicate in the same way for a thousand or two thousand years.
