The Romans established their first provinces in Hispania (the Iberian Peninsula) in 197 BC. They were Hispania Citerior (Nearer Hispania, roughly present day Catalonia) and Hispania Ulterior (Further Hispania, roughly present day Andalusia). The conquest of the rest of the peninsula took a long time and was completed in 9 BC. The Lusitans (the ancestors of the Portuguese) and the Celtiberians (the Celts of Spain) fiercely resisted Roman expansion.
Hispania became an important part of the Roman Empire. Roman families settled there. Some emperors, senators and important officers of state were Romans from Hispania. Olive production thrived and Hispania was the biggest supplier of the vast quantity of olive oil which was consumed in the city of Rome. Hispania was also a major producer of gold and silver and other metals. It also exported timber and horses. The Romans also built many roads, bridges, aqueducts, amphitheatres (arenas for gladiatorial fights) bathhouses, basilicas (public buildings) temples and sewers. Hispania was an area of the empire where gladiatorial contests were extremely popular. It is likely that these were the origin of the Spanish bullfights. The Roman influence in Hispania was so deep that Spanish is one of the Romance languages-languages which are derived from Vulgar Latin (a mixture of Latin and local languages).
the Romans established an empensley powerful empire by painting themselves various colours and running around with hoolahoops and squash in their hands; while on their bodies they wore intracatletly designed little mermaid or cinderella costumes. This all contributed the powerful empire of the Romans.
The long sword used by the Romans is/was called the "spatha". It was used by the cavalry while the infantry used the :gladius". In the Late Empire the spatha was adopted by the infantry as well.
I don't really know everyone but I do know that The Ottoman Empire (Turkish Empire) defeated the Romans at Constantinople. That was one of the last Roman battles ever I think. With regard to the west, there were Germanic invasions. The Vandals swept through Gaul and moved into Spain, stayed there for a while, and then settled in Africa. The Visigoths settled in the southeast of France and took over Spain and Portugal. Burgundy was taken over by the Burgundians and Alsace and Lorraine by the Alemanni. The Franks took over Belgium and northern France. They then the took the last Roman territory in the centre of Gaul and defeated the other Germanics in France, taking over the whole of it. In Ialy the Romans of the East chased out the Ostrogoth, but much the peninsula as invaded by the Lombards. Britannia was invaded by the , Saxons, Angles and Jutes
First of all it was not the Germans. Germany and the Germans did not exist back then. It was the Germanic peoples. Germanic is a linguistic group which includes German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and English. These Germanic peoples were the ancestors of the peoples who speak these modern languages. The Franks who lived around the mouth of the river Rhine were allowed to settle in Holland south of the river Rhine and in Belgium because they were allies of the Romans and supplied troops and cavalry to the Romans. The Visigoths asked the Romans to be allowed to settle in the lower Danube area of the Roman Empire because they wanted to escape the Huns who were conquering Eastern Europe. Emperor Valens granted this in 376. The Ostrogoths settled in Pannonia (eastern Austria and western Hungary) while the Romans lost control of this area to the Huns. After the collapse of the Hun Empire the Romans and the Ostrogoths became allies. Other smaller Germanic peoples were allowed to settle in smaller areas of the Roman Empire because they needed land and because they could become suppliers of soldiers for the Romans.

The Iberian Peninsula is much larger than the Italian Peninsula. The Iberian Peninsula is about 590,000 km2 in area, while the Italian Peninsula is only about 300,000 km2 in area.
Spain, Portugal, and Andorra create the Iberian Peninsula on the far west side of Europe. Spain is the only one of these three countries that borders the Mediterranean Sea. While Andorra and Portugal are also on the Iberian Peninsula, Andorra is landlocked, and Portugal only borders the Atlantic Ocean, not the Mediterranean Sea.

The language descended from the Latin spoken by the Romans who conquered various areas of Europe during the days of the Empire. The earliest people of the Iberian region included the Visigoths, and the Carthaginians fought the Romans in Spain during the Second Punic War in 210 BC. The existing languages developed into languages such as Basque, while Latin spread as Castilian by about the 9th Century AD.

The terrain of the two empires was vastly different. The Romans had a multitude of landscapes while the Incas were mostly mountain people.

The land extending into the sea beyond the rest of the shoreline is called a peninsula. It is a piece of land that is surrounded by water on three sides while being connected to the mainland on one side. Examples of well-known peninsulas include the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) and the Korean Peninsula.
The English language is older than the Spanish language. English evolved from the Anglo-Saxon dialects spoken in England, while Spanish developed from Latin spoken in the Iberian Peninsula. The Anglo-Saxon settlement in England occurred before the Roman conquest of the Iberian Peninsula.
