The Alps in northern Italy protected the land from invasion, while the seas on three sides allowed for easy travel and trade.
got my answer from apex (:
The Alps were of limited use. The Cimbri already attacked northern Italy by crossing the Alps in 105 BC. The Alemanni carried out a series of raids in the same area by crossing the Alps in the 2nd century. Visigoths and then Orstogoths crossed the eastern part which is not as high as the northern and western parts. The Lombards invaded by crossing the Alps. Many Holy Roman Emperors crossed the Alps with their army.
Italy lies in between the eastern and western basins of the Mediterranean, giving it a good strategic position in a crossroad area. Sicily is very close to Tunisia (which is were Carthage was. Apulia is very close to Greece. The Adriatic sea is narrow, so Illyricum was not far.

Although, the Romans did little original research, they did put science into practical use. They applied geography to make maps and medical knowledge to help doctors improve public health.
it could then trade from its colonies in Greece, gaul, Spain and northern Africa
The Roman empire began in Rome, Italy. Because of it's location, it provided the Romans with access to natural trade routes and natural protective barriers. Once the Roman empire began to expand, the Italian Alps to the north provided protection from any Northern invading countries. Surrounding the pennisula was the Mediterranean Sea, which opened up trade routes to not only Greece, but the Middle East, Northern Africa, and Europe. The expansion of the Roman Empire and the Punic Wars were affected by the Geography of the region.
Hannibal was unsuccesfal because he marched his troops almost non-stop through the alps and he fought against another excellent general, Gaius Julius Ceasar. Hannibal was unsuccessful for a number of reason non include fighting against Julius Caesar because Julius Caesar wasnt even alive in the same time as Hannibal.

Peninsular Italy provided access and land and water transport which aided Rome's takeovers.

How did its geography help sumer to develop
the reason was because of Italy trying to conquer northen Africa, they joined the army to help stop that advance although it wasn't a major attack

There are a whole lot of ways to conquer it, but I will tell you the three first steps. 1) Try to conquer it by your own. 2) Try to conquer it with help of your family. 3) Look for help with a therapist. If none of them work, you should go with a professional.
no.
Geography helps people to know where things are in the world.
Despite it's many mountains, Italy has a less rugged landscape than Greece. This made it easier for Rome to unite the peninsula. In addition, Italy has several rivers that ships can use. Since ancient times these rivers have provided water and transportation routes.
