Kosmo Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Add Ukraine and Russia because of Black Sea settlements. I don't think Azerbaijan and Kuwait were part of the Roman Empire. If their inclusion rests only on the Parthian campaign of Trajan it is debatable that they were ever Roman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryaxis Hecatee Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Sudan also seems a bit of a stretch, for I don't think they ever claimed lands south of Abu Simbel (if they even claimed it as their own) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryaxis Hecatee Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Maybe small parts of it, possibly under Trajan, but certainly not all of it. Likewise the roman did not conquer Yemen or the Gulf States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
