The Roman Empire was truly the empire of a city: Rome. This would make Rome the oldest city in the empire. However, as the Roman Empire expanded, it conquered land all around the Mediterranean and beyond. Within its boundaries, the oldest city inhabited by humans was Jericho (first being settled 9,000 BC).
