You can work that out by looking at the main legacies of the Romans, which involve religion, the alphabet, language, the calendar, law, architecture and literature.
Christianity developed from a religion among a small group of Jews (who lived in Judea, which was part of the Roman Empire) into a mass religion in the Roman days. It spread around the Roman Empire. It became state religion. Catholic Christianity and Orthodox Christianity developed during the Later Roman Empire. They were originally called Latin or Western Christianity and Greek or Eastern Christianity respectively. The former was the main form of Christianity in the western part of the Roman Empire and the latter was the main form of Christianity in the eastern part of the Roman Empire.
Western European languages have adopted and adapted the Latin alphabet. The only letters in the English language which do not come from the Latin alphabet are J, U and W.
Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian are languages derived from Latin (Romance languages). Many Latin words or words of Latin origin have entered English via two routes. One was that Latin was the language of the church in the Middle Ages. The other was the Norman conquest of England. French became the court language and many French words entered into the English language. These words are usually of Latin origin.
Many international words in medicine, law and theology are Latin.
The calendar we use is the Gregorian calendar. It is named after the minor modifications made by the calendar instituted by Julius Caesar (Julian calendar) by Pope Gregory XII in 1582. Therefore, we basically use the Roman calendar. We also use translations of the Roman names for the months.
Roman law became influential through the Corpus Juris Civilis, a collection of books which reviewed imperial laws going back 400 years (to the time of Hadrian) and was commissioned by the emperor Justinian I. It scrapped obsolete or unnecessary laws, made changes when necessary and clarified obscure passages. Its aim was to put the laws into books (previously they were written on many different scrolls), harmonise conflicting views among jurists which arose from centuries of poorly organised development of Roman law and have a uniform and coherent body of law. It was rediscovered in a library in Pisa in 1070. It became the foundation of the training of the nascent profession of lawyers in Europe in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. It has been used to compile the civil law of many modern nations.
The Romans influenced European architecture, sculpture and painting until the early 20th century. They influenced the art of the Renaissance (14th-15th century) Baroque (17th-18th century) and Neoclassicism (18th-20th century, and is still sometimes used today). Palladian architecture was also based on Roman architecture. It was popular from the 17th century to the 20th century and was often used for public buildings. Latin literature was very influential in European literature until the mid-20th century.

The Roman Empire never actually fell but relocated it's capital to Byzantium and converted to Christianity at around the same time because of the emperor Constantine the Great. This move is often stated to have ended the Roman Empire in 476 AD but the peoples of Byzantium and those they ruled never stopped calling themselves Romans and never called their empire the Byzantine Empire as this was a fabrication by historians to separate the pagan Roman Empire from the Christian Roman Empire and to separate the Holy Roman Empire from the Roman Empire to prevent confusion. The Roman Empire with it's capital at Byzantium / Constantinople fell in 1453 with the fall of Constantinople meaning that the Roman Empire after it moved to Constantinople lasted around 977 years.
We would not have Christianity. Both Catholic and Orthodox Christianity and their theologies and rituals developed in the Roman Empire and became the state religion of this empire. Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian would not exist because they were languages derived from Latin. Many English words would not exist either because they are of Latin origin. The alphabets of the western European languages would not exist or would be different because they have adopted and adapted the Latin alphabet. Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical architecture would not have existed because they were modelled on Roman architecture. The influence of Latin literature on European literature would not have existed. The law of many modern countries is based on Roman law. This would not have happened.
No. The Roman Empire got as far as Britain, Ireland's neighbouring island, but never reached Ireland. In any case, Northern Ireland only came into existence in 1922, long after the Roman Empire ended. It also ended long before Britain had any role in Ireland. So Northern Ireland was never part of the Roman empire.
probably
Byzantium is the name for Eastern Roman Empire. Since. It is invented by historians in 16th century and has never been use while empire existed and that is about 1000 years. Christianity was official religion of Eastern Roman Empire / Byzantium.

It never did. The so-called Holy Roman Empire was a mid-European entity.
No, no no. American empire? Never existed, never will. Most prospects of industrialisation were from the UK.

There were many present day countries that were never part of the Roman empire, but here are four of them: Iran, India, Pakistan and Ireland.
The Roman Empire never ruled the world.AT their largest point they controlled most of Europe, and parts of Africa and Asia.
