Rome had a very large and well fed private armies. The general actually paid for and maintained his own Army.
He would benefit from the monies an invasion would bring forth as well as controlling a provisional government which would of course make trade with Rome.
Also Rome offered the benefit of the installation of infrastructure in the form of aqueducts, roads, buildings, etc.
So you see sometimes it was not much of an advantage to rebel the oncoming invasion.
In fact many countries benefited directly from being invaded.
Last but not least, once invaded, the people had rights just the same as a Roman citizen did.
the fatties Romans were able to make such a big empire because there army was so well organised and well disciplined that they were able to take on other country's which made theme more confident.
Rome was able to build a long-term empire because of a strong military and uniform laws and the "Romanizing" or civilizing effect of their occupation. The success of the Roman Empire was also due to the fact that for the most part the ranking leaders in Rome made wise decisions. Not all the time but enough of the time to make a strong impact. Also Rome offered Roman citizenship to peoples they had conquered. This helped in Rome's international relations with the nations they made as part of their empire.
Rome It's Roman not Rome!

Yes, Julius Caesar did rule Rome. :)
Augustus ruled in Rome from 30 BC to 14 AD. Although he traveled at different times to other parts of the empire, his rule was centered in Rome.
Constantine defeated Emperors Maxentius and Licinius and reunited the Empire under his sole rule reversing Diocletian's splitting it into four.

Rome didn't, it was the Emperor who lived in Rome that did this.

Rome did not turn from a republic to an empire. The Roman republic already had an empire. In fact, much of Rome's imperial expansion occurred during the Republic. Rome's political system changed from republic to rule by emperors, not from republic to empire. This confusion is caused by historians who use the term empire in two senses. One is the commonly used territorial sense (the conquest of other peoples and their annexation into an empire). The other refers to Rome's period of rule by emperors. The change from republic to rule by emperors was a political one, not an economic one.
Constitution! }i{
Diocletian realized the Roman Empire was too large for one man to rule well.
Augustus ruled in Rome from 30 BC to 14 AD. Although he traveled at different times to other parts of the empire, his rule was centered in Rome.
I think its because That Constantine thought it would be too hard for 1 emperor to rule by himself so he divided the empire into two and sent one of his loyal servants to go rule the western part of Rome.
Constantine defeated Emperors Maxentius and Licinius and reunited the Empire under his sole rule reversing Diocletian's splitting it into four.
As Augustus was Roman emperor, he ruled the Roman empire from the city of Rome.
