The Roman Empire, in its earlier years, had a religion derived from what we now refer to as Greek mythology (formerly it was the Greek religion) as well as the worship of the Emperor, since some Roman emperors proclaimed themselves to be gods. Later, the Roman Empire adopted Christianity as its official religion.
