It was surrounded by seas so many ships could sail to different countries to conquer them.
Also its land was connected to other provinces.
Basically it was quite central in the world and easy to get to and from.
Rome was on a river delta which helped protect the inhabitants from attack, on an important trading route and so the inhabitants of ancient Rome would use it as a stopping off point, it was a very fertile area as the river Tiber nourished the soil, and it was surrounded by hills to help fend off enemies.
They were centrally located. They had easy access to the Med, and this allowed to them to sail west to conquer Iberia, east to conquer Judaea, and south to conquer North Africa. Then, they marched north to conquer most of northern Europe as well.

Italy.
The Romans were Latins. Rome expanded into central and northern Italy with the help of allied Latin cities. This large part of Italy was not actually conquered. When Rome fought wars in this area, she established dominance by making alliances with the various peoples who lived there, instead of conquering it. Northern Italy was conquered because of conflicts with the Gauls who lived there. The Pax Romana stated some 200 years after Rome's expansion into central and southern Italy, and some 120 years after the conquest of norther Italy.
