No Rome was around and fell around 2000 years ago, way before America was even heard of.
The Roman road system did not have any influence whatsoever on the spread of democracy. Neither Rome nor the Roman Empire were democracies. Democracy was a Greek concept. There were some democracies in some Greek city-states, but then they collapsed. Democracy as we know it now started to develop some 1,200 years after the Romans.
The Roman Empire was not a democracy, there were no votes and no voted elected officials. It was however designed as a Republic which had appointed representation, Senators.
Yes it was an area of Roman influence on the frontier of the Empire.
One significant freedom that American democracy recognizes, which was not acknowledged in the Roman Empire, is the principle of individual political representation through regular, free, and fair elections. In the Roman Empire, political power was largely concentrated in the hands of a few elites and emperors, with limited avenues for broader citizen participation. In contrast, American democracy allows citizens the right to vote for their representatives and influence government decisions, reflecting a fundamental commitment to democratic ideals and individual rights.
The Roman Republic did not have much influence on later societies except for the Italian city-states of the High and Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance which referred to it as a model for the development of their systems of self-governance. The society of the last phase of Roman civilisation (the Later Empire) had more of an influence in the societies of Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages. Athenian democracy did not have an influence util the development of democratic ideas in Modern Europe.

Im not sure, United States of America is not technically a democracy though, because it is a republic, like the Roman Empire was.
