That is a pretty vague question. Generally the Romans took the spoils of war, i.e. wealth, which comes in the form of gold, art, and slaves. They also generally conquered the land and made it a Roman province.

Examples of the spoils of war taken can be found throughout Rome's archaeological history. For example the arch of Titus in the Roman Forum depicts the spoils of war taken after Vespasian and Titus sacked the city of Jerusalem. Another example would be Trajan's Column which depicts Trajan's campaign against the Dacians.

The elites of many conquered peoples adopted Roman dress and customs and learnt Latin. There was often convergence between the Roman aristocracy and local aristocracy, leading to, for example, a Gallo-Roman aristocracy, and a British-Roman aristocracy. Romans theatres, amphitheatres, baths, temples, public buildings, roads, bridges and aqueducts were built around the empire. Roman deities (or aspects of them) were sometimes associated with local deities and created elements of amalgamated religion. In some areas of the empire the Romans introduced new crops from other areas of the empire and improved agricultural and manufacturing techniques.

Why did rome have enemies?

Everybody! :) They were at war with about all their neigbors all the time. They fought the German tribes, the British tribes, the French tribes, the Northern Greeks, Romanian and Hungarian sorts, the people of the Russian steppe, the Iranians, the Iraqis, the Turks... you get the idea. There were all sorts of barbaric tribes that Rome fought. They were less advanced technologically and, for the most part, easily beaten. Historically, the Romans had real trouble with the Huns, the Goths, the Carthaginians, and the Parthians. Everybody else was just a nuisance to be beaten to plant another Roman flag on the ground. I hope I helped.
