Augustus Caesar issued a proclamation that all the world should be taxed. Because of his decree, Mary and Joseph left their home and went to Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ was born. Birth in Bethlehem was a prophetic requirement for the Messiah. Without Augustus' decree, there probably would have been some other reason for them to go to Bethlehem, but none so historical and capable of confirmation.
At His death, Jesus was reluctantly crucified by the Romans. If He hadn't been crucified, most of Psalms 22 would be meaningless. If He hadn't died and bled, there would have been no efficacious atonement for our sin. Without a death, there would have been no resurrection.
Before He ascended, Jesus directed His followers to go into all the world and preach the gospel. The Romans had preceded them and had built great roads to all the important centers in their empire.
The Romans persecuted Christians for their refusal to acknowledge Caesar as god. To avoid persecution, the Christians left their homes and literally went into all the world. You might say the Roman Empire helped the Christians get out of their comfort zones.
The Roman Empire persecuted Christians and killed many of us. In the persecutions, many martyrs were made, contributing to our rich heritage and giving us their example of how to stand up to government and at the same time stand up for Christ.
This is a short list, but the question needed someone to get the ball rolling. Thanks to you, and thanks to the Roman Empire!
