Greek mythology was not a religion! If you mean the 12 Olympian Gods and Godesses, it was a Greek religon-like system adopted later by Romans who also changed some of these Gods's names, like Posidon-Neptun, Aphrodite-Venus, Hephestus-Vulcano,etc.
This system was ended by the first Christian emperors.

How did the Romans influence the spread of religion and what was the main religion they practiced?
The Romans spread two different religions: pagan religion and Catholicism. In the early days of the Roman empire, they spread pagan Roman religion that is usually referred today as Roman Mythology. In 312 AD, Emperor Constantine converted to Catholicism, and made it the state religion in 313. After that point Catholicism was spread by the sword across the Roman Empire. This practice continued until the fall of the Roman Empire, and was picked up by most of the kingdoms that rose out of that collapse. The general way of spreading religion within the Roman Empire, and even more so by the governments that followed the fall of the Roman Empire, was if you did not convert to Catholicism, you died.
