The number of legions and their strengths differed at different times, so the following is the data on the legions under Augustus. After defeating Marc Antony, Octavian/Augustus had about 60 legions as he not only had his own legions and the ones stationed on the far European borders, but he also took over Antony's legions. Needless to say many were disbanded or combined with other legions. Augustus pared down the military until he had 28 legions of 150,000 men. These legionaries were aided by about 180,000 auxiliary infantry and cavalry.The number of legions and their strengths differed at different times, so the following is the data on the legions under Augustus.

The ancient Roman republic's legions were primarily infantry troops who had a large stake in defeating Carthage because they were land owners. As land owners they had a clear stake in preserving their wealth and defeating foreign threats. As mentioned earlier, the Roman military had developed a superior infantry formation called "legions". The legions were well disciplined soldiers who had a regular set of maneuvers that helped increase their chances in battles. The land forces of Carthage were not as powerful as their naval forces. The armies of Carthage were mercenaries with no particular loyalty to Carthage other than the monies Carthage paid them.

Roman legions were not always at war. Much of their time was guarding the borders of the empire from other civilizations such as the Parthians or from tribal bandits. Within the empire any civil rebellions were crushed as fast as possible. Roman legions were constantly training for wars. This made them always ready for battle and kept their fighting skills well sharpened. The Roman navy kept the Mediterranean free of piracy. Also the legions had engineers among their ranks. Thus road & bridge building and maintenance was part of the duties of the legions.
