The Inca built a network of roads and crisscrossing the nation for easier travel. Armies could march on it, messengers could use it for delivering. and traders could carry goods upon it.
because they needed a way to move their troops and goods around their empire
The roads allowed troops and goods to travel fast. Some still exist today. I have been on the Appian Way one of the major Roman roads.
The Roman roads allowed the Legions to march where they were needed, anywhere in the Empire, and goods and products to move from place to place, allowing a free flow of commerce; they also allowed for taxes to flow into Rome itself. There was an ancient phrase, "All roads lead to Rome," because all roads radiated out from there.

Roads were the lifelines of the empire as they were the links to the various provinces. They made it possible for rapid troop movements in times of trouble. They made travel, trade and communications relatively quick and easy. The main roads were well traveled and generally safe.
Roads facilitated communication between the various parts of the vast Roman Empire. This facilitated general travel, the transport for goods for trade and the journeys of officials and state messengers to the provinces of the empire. About 20% of the enormous road network of the Roman Empire were the famous stone-paved roads. These had military purposes. They speeded up the movement of troops and made the transport of supplies to the solders stationed in garrisons or at the front of wars easier.
The question is "WERE there roads in the Persian empire". The simple answer is no, the Persians only had dirt paths they travelled on but not "roads" by definition being a paved path. The Romans invented roads.

Inca roads were important for several reasons. Firstly, they facilitated trade and communication across the vast Inca Empire, enabling the movement of goods and information. Secondly, they played a crucial role in the administrative control of the empire, helping the Inca rulers maintain their authority and collect tribute from different regions. Lastly, the roads were used for military purposes, allowing for the rapid mobilization of troops and aiding in the expansion and defense of the empire.
If you mean the Roman people, they had good reasons for it. The Roman stone-paved roads had a military purpose. The speeded up and made easier the movement of troops and of supplies to soldiers at the front of in garrisons. Since Rome was at war so often, they were very important. They also made communications and the transport of goods for trade easier. The stone-paved roads were only about 20% (80,500 kilometres, 50,313 miles) of the total network of Roman Roads (400,000 kilometres, 250,000 miles). Roads, stone-paved or not, were essential to ensure adequate communication around the vast Roman Empire and to facilitate trade. The empire created a huge trading network. Goods were shipped from every corner of the empire and traded to every corner of the empire.
The Romans build many roads for the same reasons that we have so many roads today-- to get from here to there. The Romans (and ourselves) used roads to transport people and goods from place to place. The army was efficiently moved along better roads and better roads made for better transport of trade goods. Communications with all parts of the empire was possible, at least in part, by the use of good roads.
