Rome was a very crowded city and the living conditions for the poor wasn't very good. They lived in multi story apartments and because they used open fires to cook with and for light the area would often catch fire. Once on fire the living quarters burned very fast and moved quickly. Putting out the fires was the problem. They did begin a city fire department to solve the problem.

What was the important political leader of ancient Rome?

Over the long period of existence, ancient Rome had many important political leaders. It's a subjective question and based on what I have read about ancient Rome, I believe that Augustus Caesar was the most important political leader in ancient Rome's history. The reasons for my choice of Augustus are many fold. Foremost in my mind is this; After the Civil War with Mark Antony & Cleopatra, Octavian then known as, was the supreme leader of ancient Rome. He brought a great degree of stability to Rome compared to previous times. Augustus had flaws of course but I rank him as the most important leader.
