The Romans did not decide to conquer all of Italy. In the late 4th century BC and the early 3rd century BC, Rome expanded into the mountains of central and southern Italy as a result of winning the Second and Third Samnite War (326-340 BC and 298-290 BC) against the Samnites who lived south of Rome. They did not establish control through conquest. Instead, they established military alliances with most of the Italic peoples who lived in the region. The allies had to supply soldiers for auxiliary troops which supported the Roman legions. The system worked because the Romans supported the local ruling elites and because she shared the spoils of war, which could be considerable. They did not establish alliances with the Etruscan and the Umbrians. They did not need this to keep them under control.
The Romans conquered Calabria (the toe of Italy) and Apulia (the heel of the country) after winning the Pyrrhic War (275-270) against Pyrrhus, a Greek king who tried to invade southern Italy. These two regions became strategically important to the Romans. In particular, the port to sail towards Greece was in Apulia.
After the above, the Romans were content to limit themselves to controlling these areas of Italy and set the river Rubicon as the border. They were not interested in conquering northern Italy. However, things changed when the Gauls who lived in the north attacked Etruria and wanted to march on Rome. In the face of this threat, the Romans conquered the area along the river Po, which is where the Gauls lived. They did not conquer the northeast of Italy. This was because the Veneti, who lived there, allied with Rome in the war against the Gauls and remained good friends.
