The Alps in the northern part of the Italian peninsula provided a natural barrier to invaders. The Alps, however, were not insurmountable and incursion by barbaric tribes were part of early and late Roman history. Also, as formidable as these mountains were, the Carthage general Hannibal was able to cross the Alps with a large army and war elephants during the 2nd Punic War.

An empire is not a person. Therefore, the Roman Empire did not invent anything. The Romans invented concrete. Roman concrete was different from modern concrete. It was more fluid and had to be layered by hand. It was just as strong.
The ballistas were crossbow-like catapults. They helped the Roman army. They were the artillery of antiquty.
Laws were one of the factors that gave the empire unity. Since all provinces and territories were ruled by Roman law, the laws were the glue that held the empire together.

Italy's position in the Mediterranean was a key reason why the Roman empire was centred of the Mediterranean. It central position in that sea also helped to make it the geographical and economic pivot of the empire as it stood at the crossroad between the western and eastern basins of the Mediterranean and provided a link between this sea and the areas north of the Alps.

Hannibal, although he never completed his mission of destroying the romans, he knew how to achieve victory but not how to use it.
The Roman Empire made Christianity the official religion of the Empire, and 'encouraged' the peoples it conquered to convert.

The luxury of the Roman Empire.... :)
No mountains surrounded the Roman empire. In fact, the Roman empire surrounded several ranges of mountains, or at least considered them as borders in a way. There were the Apennines right in Italy itself with the Alps up in the north. The Atlas mountains were in Africa and the Pyrenees between France and Spain. These were in addition to the mountain ranges in Greece and those of many of their other provinces.
