What modern countries do you think were the most difficult for Rome control?
From ancient Rome's early days and moving forward into the empire's expansion, one area seems to me to have been problematic for ancient Rome. In my opinion, Gaul (modern day France and the lowlands )was a problem. Yes were times when Gaul was the least of the empire's problems. The size of Gaul, however, and the richness of the land made Gaul not the easiest of areas for Rome to control. Other "uncivilized" nations liked being in Gaul, whether they were invited or not. Gaul had a large significant sea coast and its eastern borders were dominated at times by Germanic tribes. Because of Gaul's value to Rome, Gaul needed constant attention.

Were Carthage Rome Gaul and Alexandria all powerful empires at about the same time?
Gaul not an Empire. It was not even a unified state. There were two Gauls: Translapine Gaul (France, Belgium Holland south of the River Rhine and Germany west of this river) and Cisalpine Gaul (in part of northern Italy.) The former was inhabited by some 54 independent major and minor tribes and the latter was inhabited by eight independent tribes. Alexandria was not an empire either. It was a city. At the time in question it was the capital of a kingdom: the Ptolemaic kingdom of Egypt. Carthage had an empire in the western Mediterranean: its homeland in Tunisia and western Libya, the islands in this part of the Mediterranean (Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica and the Balearics) and trading outposts in southern Spain. Following her first war against Rome she conquered southern Spain and the greater part of its east coast. Before the wars against Carthage Rome controlled Italy through a system of alliances with some of the Italian peoples and through founding settlements in strategic areas of the peninsula. She started developing an empire outside Italy by winning the three Punic Wars against Carthage, taking over her territories after each war.

The emperor in ancient Rome was an absolute ruler who was the most powerful man in the empire. At that time, the pope, intended as the Bishop of Rome, was not the most powerful clergyman. He was part of the Pentarchy. This was a term which conveyed the idea of universal rule over all Christians by the heads (or Patriarchs) of the five major episcopal sees of the Roman Empire: Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem. These five patriarchs were equals.
