The Roman Empire was at its greatest extent in the very early 2nd century BC

At its peak the Roman Empire ranged from Aberdeen, Scotland, on the North, past the Netherlands, south keeping east of the Rhine, then north of the Danube, north of Romania, North of the Black Sea, and west to the Caspian sea. From the Caspian south it included all of present day IRAQ a small slice taken from the western part of present day IRAN.

The Romans were also in the Arabian Desert. They settled North Africa. They had settlements in the Sahara. Their irrigation techniques whereby little rain produced crops are no longer used. No one knows how far south the Roman Empire went in the Sahara.

The Roman Empire was very vast, incorporating Western Europe, (including Britain but not Scotland) North Africa, and parts of Arabia, and southern European countries like Greece and Italy. Basically, they dominated the areas around Mediterranean Sea.
