For centuries, the Roman Empire was one of the most powerful empires in the world. At its peak, it controlled a massive territory that extended from North Africa to Britain and from Spain to the Middle East. To the east of Rome was another major empire, the Parthian Empire.<\/p>\n

What was the Roman Empire bordered by? <\/h2>\n

The Roman Empire was one of the largest empires in history. It stretched over 5,000 km from the Atlantic coast of northern Britain, through Europe to the Black Sea, and from there to the Red Sea and across North Africa to the Atlantic coast. The Roman Empire was a major political and cultural force in the Western and Eastern worlds.<\/p>\n

From the time of Emperor Theodosius the First (Flavius Theodosius, 379-395), the boundary of the Western and Eastern Roman Empire (the Adriatic) was near the Bay of Kotor, which was then called Risan bay. The border was at the borderline between Praevalis (Praevalitana) and Dalmatia.<\/p>\n
