What did the Romans call the people who lived outside Italy?
The Romans called the people who lived outside of Italy by their names, such as Egyptians, Britons, Greeks, etc. Sometimes they narrowed it down to tribal names such as the Helvitii, Batavii, etc.
There was also a general term for the peoples outside Italy: provinciales (provincials). This name was derived from the term province. The Romans turned the territories they conquered into provinces of the empire.
There is a misconception that the Romans called those living outside of Italy barbarians. The term "barbarian" was a Greek word meaning anyone who was not a Greek. It basically meant foreigners. The Romans adopted this term and called barbarian peoples who lived outside the empire and even some peoples who lived inside the empire, at its periphery. The emperor of the east Zeno was unpopular because he was considered a barbarian as he was from Isauria, in Turkey, close to Syria.
Before Roman citizenship was extended to all freemen in the empire, the provinciales were the 4th category of citizenship in the empire. Through this, they enjoyed the rights of jus gentium (the law of nations). This meant that the provinciales enjoyed some legal protection by the Roman state. Their litigation cases against Roman citizens were judged by the praetor peregrinus (chef justice for foreigners) who was meant to make impartial and just rulings.
The jus gentium regulated the interactions between Romans and non-Romans. The word nation had a different meaning back then. It referred to ethnic groups. This law was based on principles of natural law; that is, on the idea that justice came from the human mind, and therefore independently from ethnicity or citizenship status and could apply to the non-Romans of the empire.
