Rome kept such a large empire unified through tolerance, legal protections, proving benefits, Propaganda and the army.
The Romans tolerated the religions and customs of the conquered peoples. They allowed them to continue to worship their religions, follow their customs and use their customary laws at the local level. They also let the local ruling classes run most of the local affairs. The role of the provincial governors of the provinces (conquered territories) was restricted to defence and maintenance of the legions stationed in the provinces, tax collection, public works and the arbitration of disputes the locals could not resolve by themselves. This policy had two advantages: it reduced the administrative load of the provincial governors and it facilitated the integration of the locals into the ideology and the economy of the empire. A less tolerant policy would have led to too many rebellions and would have threatened the stability of the empire.
In 225 BC the emperor Caracalla extended full Roman citizenship to all the freeborn in the Roman Empire Prior to this, the provincials, the people outside Italy who had been conquered or were under Roman influence, enjoyed the rights of jus gentium (the law of nations). Nation in the Latin was the word for ethnicity and just gentium was a sort of natural law which was regarded as "innate in every human being." The rights it conferred were considered to be held by all persons. They were based on the notion that the concept of justice sprung from the natural reason of the human mind rather than ethnicity and that they applied regardless of citizenship. Through this, the provincials enjoyed the protection of Roman civil law in their dealings with Roman citizens. Cases between Romans and non-Romans were adjudicated by the praetor peregrino, the chief justice for foreigners, who was supposed base his rulings on fairness and on Roman civil law. .
Being part of the empire also provided economic benefits and, sometimes, security. The empire developed thriving trading networks and the Romans encouraged the peoples in the provinces to increase the production of manufactures agricultural goods for trade. The wealthy and middling class benefitted from this. The exploited poor did not. The Roman legions stationed in the provinces helped with maintaining order. In the frontier areas they also provided protection from raids from across the border. The troops were also customers for local traders.
because Rome had many victories and it started to expand so much
and after that they had to cut in half
There were two causes of the fall of the Roman Empire. They were internal and external. Internally, the Roman Empire became weaker and weaker. It started pulling back from its frontier territories. It abandoned England. Germanic tribes moved into the Empire and carved out their own areas. They cut back on taxes. Finally Pippin did not pay taxes and ended the control of the empire in North West Europe. The Arabs conquered the lands held by the empire in the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa, and Spain. The Huns carved out Hungry. So, first the Empire cut back its size. Then it could not keep the barbarians from carving out their areas within the empire. Then it could not keep others from reducing its borders.
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.

The Romans developed the famous stone-paved roads for military purposes. They facilitated the movement of soldiers to the front of wars or to garrisons they build in areas they wanted to keep under control and the transport of suppliers to the troops. The first network was developed around Italy, which is where Rome first expanded. They were centred on Rome because that is where the deployment of troops started. As Rome expanded beyond Italy, other stone-paved roads which were not centred on Rome were built around the empire. The Romans did not build roads only for military purposes. The stone paved roads constituted 20% of the 400,000 Km (250,000 miles) network of roads which was built in the Roman Empire. The Romans also built gravelled roads (the via glareata) and level earthen roads (the via terrena). Many of these roads linked part of the empire without being centred on Rome as well.
