What did the Romans do while the iberian peninsula was part of their empire?
The Romans established their first provinces in Hispania (the Iberian Peninsula) in 197 BC. They were Hispania Citerior (Nearer Hispania, roughly present day Catalonia) and Hispania Ulterior (Further Hispania, roughly present day Andalusia). The conquest of the rest of the peninsula took a long time and was completed in 9 BC. The Lusitans (the ancestors of the Portuguese) and the Celtiberians (the Celts of Spain) fiercely resisted Roman expansion. Hispania became an important part of the Roman Empire. Roman families settled there. Some emperors, senators and important officers of state were Romans from Hispania. Olive production thrived and Hispania was the biggest supplier of the vast quantity of olive oil which was consumed in the city of Rome. Hispania was also a major producer of gold and silver and other metals. It also exported timber and horses. The Romans also built many roads, bridges, aqueducts, amphitheatres (arenas for gladiatorial fights) bathhouses, basilicas (public buildings) temples and sewers. Hispania was an area of the empire where gladiatorial contests were extremely popular. It is likely that these were the origin of the Spanish bullfights. The Roman influence in Hispania was so deep that Spanish is one of the Romance languages-languages which are derived from Vulgar Latin (a mixture of Latin and local languages).
