The Roman Republic was successful at expanding its borders for many reasons. One of those reasons is that unlike most other "civilized" nations, city-states,etc...,the roman army did not use a phalanx formation. The roman legion was much more flexible, and much faster. It was also very successful because it was very advanced for its time.
