The location of a civilization is an important prerequisite- so it is with Rome. If you looked at Rome on a map, you would see it is surrounded by mountains, jungles, and a turbulent sea on all sides. It is from this sheltered position that Rome springboarded to greatness. Remember, Hannibil of Charthage had a great deal of trouble crossing the Roman mountains. The story of the elephants is famous.
