Ancient Rome did actually take over any countries. Counties in the modern sense of the nation-state did not exist in antiquity. There were thee types of state formations: kingdoms, independent city-states and territories of ethnic groups which were named after the group in question (e.g. Etruria, land of the Etruscans, Latium, land of the Latins). Most ethnic territories were not centralised and were collections of either independent city-states or impediment tribes. Sometimes, all or some of the tribes of an ethnic group formed alliances (leagues or federation) for military purposes. They were not political amalgamations. The Latin words natio (plural nationes) did not refer to nations. It referred to ethnic groups.
