The Romans obtained various valuable resources from Switzerland, including metals such as gold, silver, and copper, as the region was rich in mineral deposits. They also exploited agricultural products and timber from the fertile lands and forests. Additionally, the strategic location of Switzerland allowed the Romans to control trade routes, enhancing their economic gain from the area. Overall, the loot contributed significantly to the wealth of the Roman Empire.

Why did boudicca lose against the Romans in the Battle?

Boudicca failed against the Romans for obvious reasons. The first was that she did not know what she was doing as she was no military leader. She seemed to be blinded by the quest for revenge rather than common sense (if she had any in the first place). The second reason was that she had no control over her so-called army. She may have condoned the burning, looting, and the mutilation and torture of the Romans and Celts in Londinium, Verrulamium and Camulodium, as it was relatively easy to attack and win over unarmed civilians and skeleton troops. However when Paulinus got word of her attacks and marched his legions back, it was a very different story. Boudicca's troops had swelled to an estimated 250,000 once word got around of the loot that was taken from the three towns that were devastated. They were undisciplined and almost impossible to control. They were overconfident that they would win over Paulinus and his under manned legions. Boudicca allowed Paulinus to pick the battlefield. Big mistake, as all the natural advantages of the terrain aided the Romans. In addition, Boudicca's "army" had never faced a full Roman legion on a battlefield. They had never encountered the awesome Roman discipline and their battle tactics. As it turned out, Boudicca's 250,000 were defeated by Paulinus' less than 10,000, with the Celts suffering a loss of 80,000 while the Romans lost 400.
