Catholic AnswerTechnically there is no "Roman Catholicism," I am assuming that you are asking about the Catholic Church:

The head of the Catholic Church if Our Blessed Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ; His Vicar on Earth is the Holy Father in Rome, the Pope. The Holy Father is the direct successor of St. Peter. Under the Pope there are the Bishops all over the world, they are the direct successors of the Apostles. Each of them runs a diocese, with priests and deacons to assist him. They is the "clergy," they exist to preach the Gospel and to administer Our Blessed Lord's sacraments to the Faithful, who comprise each local Church under its Bishop. Monsignor is a title of honor given to certain priests, Archbishop is a title given to a Bishop of an Archdiocese (the first diocese in any given area). Cardinals are Bishops (although in some cases, there are a few Cardinals who are priests) who are appointed to elect the next Pope when the current Holy Father dies.

How did the Romans influence the spread of religion and what was the main religion they practiced?

The Romans spread two different religions: pagan religion and Catholicism. In the early days of the Roman empire, they spread pagan Roman religion that is usually referred today as Roman Mythology. In 312 AD, Emperor Constantine converted to Catholicism, and made it the state religion in 313. After that point Catholicism was spread by the sword across the Roman Empire. This practice continued until the fall of the Roman Empire, and was picked up by most of the kingdoms that rose out of that collapse. The general way of spreading religion within the Roman Empire, and even more so by the governments that followed the fall of the Roman Empire, was if you did not convert to Catholicism, you died.
