Silk Road is a name which indicate a network of trading routes across Asia. It has been called Silk Road because the most important good which was traded along the routes from China to the Mediterranean Sea was silk. This was an expensive material which was sought by the rich in Europe. This was a problem for the Romans because wealthy Romans spent a lot of money on buying silk.
