Ancient Roman road in Portugal. The first of the great Roman roads, the Via Appia (Appian Way), begun by the censor Appius Claudius Caecus in 312 bce, originally ran southeast from Rome 162 miles (261 km) to Tarentum (now Taranto) and was later extended to the Adriatic coast at Brundisium (now Brindisi).
The largest Roman army to ever take the battle field was in 216 BC at the battle of Cannae against Hannibal. The Roman army numbered 85,000 to 110,000 depending on the different sources. Hannibal's army numbered around 35,000 to 45,000. And guess what the Romans lost, hell they didn't just loss they got annihilated.
