The Roman Empire reached its largest extent about 160 A.D. It extended from inside present day Iran to the highlands of Scotland. The borders were fluid during this time with wars constantly raging at the edge of the empire so no accurate maps can be drawn giving the exact edges. Some reports are also suspect giving another reason not to trust the edges of maps. Still, no doubt remains where archaeological ruins remain. Rome definitely controlled all of England to all of Iraq in 160 A.D. It controlled The Benelux Countries, France, part of Germany and Switzerland. It controlled Romania and a few miles north of the Black Sea. It controlled the Caucus, Iraq, Egypt, All the countries now bordering the Mediterranean, Spain, and Portugal.
