The Romans are important to us today because they fought and won many wars and survived until crashing down. They are important to us now because they are they bravest and most popular things in history that there is, apart from me, of corse.
One of the reasons why the Romans are important to us is that for centuries the classics (the ancient Greeks and Romans) have been an important part of the education of the elites which made them well acquainted with their history, literature and art.
Another reason is the legacies which the Romans have left us. The main ones are religion, the alphabet, language, law, sculpture, architecture and literature.
Christianity developed from a religion among a small group of Jews into a mass religion in the Roman days. It spread around the Roman Empire. It became the religion of the masses and then state religion. Catholic Christianity and Orthodox Christianity developed during the Late Roman Empire. Back then they were called Latin or Western Christianity and Greek or Eastern Christianity respectively. The former was the main religion in the western part of the Roman Empire and the latter was the main religion in the eastern part of the Roman E Empire
Western European languages have adopted and adapted the Latin alphabet. The only letters in the English language which do not come from the Latin alphabet are J, U and W.
Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian are languages derived from Latin (romance languages). Many Latin words have entered English via two routes. One was that Latin was the language of the church in the Middle Ages. The other was the Norman conquest of England. French became the court language and many French words entered into the English language. These words are usually of Latin origin.
Many words in medicine, law and theology are Latin.
The key principles of Roman civil law have provided the foundation or an inspiration for the law of many modern countries. These are: These are: citizenship status and citizenship rights, equality under the law, the right to have a proper trial and to defend oneself, the right to appeal, that the burden of proof rests on the accuser and not on the accused, that it is the exact form of actions and not intentions or words which is punishable, and that a law deemed unreasonable or unfair can be repealed.
The Romans influenced European architecture, sculpture and painting until the early 20th century. They influenced the art of the Renaissance (14th-15th century) Baroque (17th-18th century) and Neoclassicism (18th-20th century, and is still sometimes used today). Palladian architecture was also based on Roman architecture. It was popular from the 17th century to the 20th century and was often used for public buildings. Latin literature was very influential in European literature until the mid-20th century.
The Romans are important because of their amazing longevity, inventions, and the sheer size of their empire. They are also important because our western culture is based on Roman ideas and ideals.
What made ancient Rome important was the fact that it built the 2nd largest empire in antiquity and the 17th largest in history.
The map of Rome was important for the Romans because it showed the exact extension of the Empire. Since the Roman expansion was so vast, it was also helpful to travellers.
