Did Rome have a period in their history when they had a lot of money power art trade and food?

Answer 1

At its height the Roman Empire developed thriving trading networks which created great prosperity. The wealth it created was concentrated in the hands of the fabulously rich.

There was a lot of great art in Rome and in the empire, especially sculpture, frescoes, mosaics, cameos and other jewellery, silverware, etc. There was also what historians have called the Roman architectural revolution.

The rich had plenty of food and a taste for exotic dishes and spices (which were very expensive). The masses of the poor were unemployed or underemployed and relied on a state grain dole for survival. Rome needed to import huge quantities of grain to feed its massive population. Half of this came from Egypt. Tunisia, Sicily and Sardinia were other important produces. Rome also imported large quantities of olive oil. They used so many amphorae to carry this oil that they created a hill of discarded amphora shreds 35 metres (115 ft.) high. It is estimated that it contains the remains of 53 million amphorae. Most of the oil came from Spain.

Answer 2

There was not a specific name for that period. Classical period is a term which relates to the apex of Roman civilisation, rather than the peak of her power and trade. The latter was during the late Roman Republic and the early imperial period.

Answer 3

Sure. How about when they ruled Egypt? That would be from about the ninth century BC until the Assyrian invasion in 671 BC.
