The greatest contribution of ancient Rome was Roman law, a body of principles that protected certain justices. They believed in a higher law or "natural law" in the same way that Americans claimed they had "undeniable rights" (life, liberty, property) in the Declaration of Independence. Roman law favored the state and the public interest seen by the government. The ancient Romans maintained a centralized, systematic army. Ancient Rome contributed architecture, roads, and aquaducts to the moden world. Americans also have similar views on property, debt, and marriage. Rome was a bully intent on world domination which is also the aim of the US
There are millions. For example the White House was made from Roman designs. Life size statues of George Washington. Roman. All the little statues along the capital's dome were Roman. Domes are roman.

There are no similarities between the Roman Empire and the US. We are talking about two totally different historical periods 1,500 years apart from each other, and two totally different societies, economies, technological levels and political systems. Moreover, the US does not have an empire.

None. Roman civilisation ended some 1,200 years before the creation of the US. We are talking about totally different historical times, societies and political arrangements.
