Best Answer

"Why do people believe in gods (or God)?" is an ancient question. The Romans had the same reasons as other people throughout the world, right up to the present day. Religion helped people explain how the world was created. It gave them hope for divine assistance in time of peril, as well as hope for a better life after death.

Romans believed that if they were in good favor with their gods that their gods would help them. If the gods were mad at them, they would be punished.

It was the only reason for why things happened, the gods made it so.

To make things less complicated they had a god for most things, (originally their gods are based on the Greeks').
