Principal Routes of the Roman Road Network. By 125 CE, the Roman Empire had built one of the most advanced and extensive road systems in the ancient world. Stretching over 400,000 kilometers, Roman roads connected major cities, military bases, and trade centers across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. The Roman road network played a major role in spreading culture, commerce, and ideas throughout the empire. #RomanEmpire #RomanRoads #AncientHistory #HistoricalMaps #RomanEngineering #WorldHistory #AncientInfrastructure #RomanCivilization #125CE

Truly remarhkable. Zooming into and out of the map, and looking at places I know from my personal life, makes the vastness of this system tangible.
I checked out various places where I have worked or studied. As a student in Cambridge, I rented a room in an Old Rectory in a village near Cambridge, and this house was directly by the old Roman road that leaves Cambridge northwards. In Germany, our home in the hills above Frankfurt was very close to a Roman road, at the extreme edge of the empire, just a few miles out from one of the Roman border forts. In Israel, the Kibbutz I worked in as a young man, north of Sea of Galilee, also was located directly at the place of a Roman road.
A vast area spanning over three continents, countless micro-cosms all interconnected by a single, well-maintained system. Stunning.

For map nerds everywhere, fabulous interactive route planner of the Roman empire. The map includes nearly 300,000 kilometres of roads existing in around ad 150, when the empire was at its maximum territorial extent.

Have you always wanted a route planner like Google Maps for the good old Roman times around 2000ys ago?
Then take a look at this amazing research project by a team from several universities led by Tom Brughmans from Aarhus University. Part of the project was the development of such a route planner.
Now you can easily find out for example how long it took to travel the fastest way (🏇) from historic Verona to Lutetia (now Paris): only 172 hours 😁

Itiner-e: A high-resolution dataset of roads of the Roman Empire
Itiner-e, the most detailed and comprehensive open digital dataset of roads in the entire Roman Empire. It was created by identifying roads from archaeological and historical sources, locating them using modern and historical topographic maps and remote sensing, and digitising them with road segment-level metadata and certainty categories.

ANÁLISIS GEOGRÁFICO FÍSICO, HUMANO Y AMBIENTAL, DE LA PRODUCCIÓN Y CONSUMO DE LAS ENERGÍAS LLAMADAS RENOVABLES EN ESPAÑA.
Impresionante trabajo que deberías ver para entender muchas cosas con las que, por ignorancia, los p-olíticos nos tienen bien jo-di-dos.
