(05.04 MC) How did the Roman transportation system keep the empire strong?

Because in a time when hand-carried cards were the only form of communication, good roads made sending and receiving messages much faster (or rather, a lot less slow). Sending messages was the only real way to keep a government intact. Also, good roads made trade faster and easier, which meant more money and more efficient collection of taxes, which in turn made the Empire strong.

a) romans valued loyalty and discipline

the nationalists wanted a strong central government so the new country wouldn't fall apart.
