The Romans, in the years of expanding their republic (and later their empire), came into conflict with many different adversaries. From North African Carthaginians, which was a colony from Phoenicia(a people who, in ancient times, lived in the Canaan), Hellenes(Greeks), Macedonians(A Hellenic people of Alexander the Great fame), Israelite Jews(The Originals) and Ptolemaic(A Hellenic Diadochi state) Egyptians.
By some means or another, whether political or through warfare, the Romans always came out in the end to subjugate the foreign populace and expand their empire. Most civilizations at the time could not keep up with the efficiency by which Rome could prepare and expend troops, and on top of this Rome had an advanced system of close-combat swordsmanship and were ultimately very versatile in adapting the strategies of other warriors if necessary.
Even though Rome could conquer Britain, it seemed unable to, just as the Angles, Saxons and Jutes a few centuries later, conquer the native Pictish people of Scotland. Whether this was due to some tactic related to the cold Scottish winter making it difficult to wage war or if the Pictish people were more unified than the other tribes in England at the time, I am unsure... What is certain is that the Romans were unable to enforce hegemony in their land.

in AD 60, king Prasutagus died. Prasutagus was an allied king living under Roman law. Thinking he would save some of his kingdom for his wife and daughters, in his will, he gave the emperor Nero half of his kingdom and left the other half to his wife and daughters. However what Pratsutagus didn't understand was that women were not allowed to inherit more than 10% from a man under Roman law. When Boudicca went to claim her inheritance, she found that Rome had taken over the entire kingdom leaving her with the minimal. She raved at them, was whipped for it, and her daughters raped as punishment.
The Huns did not conquer the Roman Empire. They raided the eastern part of the empire three times, tried to invade Gaul but were repelled, and tried to invade to Italy, but had to give up because of a famine in Italy and because the Roman army attacked their homeland. It was said that some Gallo-Romans did not mind the conquests by the Germanic peoples because they were unhappy with the Roman state's oppressive taxation regime.
The first thing the Romans did with someone accused of a crime was to give him a trial. Where this trial took place depended on the status of the accused and the type of crime. A petty crime by someone of the lower class would be tried by one of the praetors and if found guilty the man would be fined and set free. A capital crime, such as murder had special courts and if the man were found guilty he could face the death penalty, again depending upon the status of the person he murdered and the circumstances of the crime. However, a man accused of treason or a public official accused of corruption, both of these defendants, usually being of a high status, would be tried before the Senate.
