The Latin language was spread across Western Europe during the Roman Empire. Latin was the main language spoken in the provinces of the Roman Empire and it was used for most official documents and religious ceremonies. Although Latin was the main language there were still regional dialects in use throughout the empire such as Celtic in Gaul and Iberian in Hispania.
Latin also had an influence on the development of languages later used in Western Europe. The Romance languages such as Spanish French Italian and Portuguese all evolved from Latin. Additionally many of the Germanic languages such as German and English were also heavily influenced by Latin.
The main language in the western part of the Roman Empire was Vulgar Latin a mixture of Latin and the local languages. This is shown by the fact that Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese are Romance languages, which means that they are languages derived from Vulgar Latin. These areas covered the bulk of this part of the empire. It is not known whether other areas of this part of the empire also spoke Vulgar Latin because their populations have been replaced and absorbed by Germanic peoples.

The eastern part of the Roman Empire had a variety of language as different conquered people had different languages. Some of them were Egyptian, Yiddish, Syriac, Armenian, Thracian, Dacian and Illyrian. Aramaic was a lingua franca in the Asian Middle East. The elites spoke Greek because the Greeks ruled the eastern Mediterranean (Pergamon in western Turkey, the Seleucid Empire in the Asian Middle east and the Ptolemaic kingdom in Egypt)prior to the Romans and Greek was the language used in the Greek/Eastern Church (which later came to be called Orthodox Church). Latin was the imperial language because the Romans spoke Latin. After the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire Greek became the official language of the eastern part. Historians have coined the term Byzantine Empire to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part. The Romans did not use this term, they called it Roman Empire or Romania (this referred to this empire and not the country which was later called Romania). The term Byzantine is derived from Byzantium, the Greek city which was redeveloped, turned into the imperial capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and renamed Constantinople by the emperor Constantine the Great in 330. It is used to indicate the fact that not long after the fall of the west, this empire became centred on Greece and Greek in character after it lost most of its non-Greek territories. Greek replaced Latin as the official language of this empire in 620, some 150 years after the fall of the west.
