As the Roman Empire expanded it created clear roads through all conquered lands that led directly to Rome, the city. This was necessary to quickly establish strong trade ties with the newly conquered people, and get acquired booty, treasure, slaves and everything in between back to the capital as quickly and efficiently as possible. And perhaps most importantly it allowed Rome to move her legions throughout the land quickly to either quell a rebellion or defend itself from raiders/invaders.
