Tell us about the natural climatic conditions of Ancient Rome.

Natural and climatic factors largely influenced the formation of Ancient Rome as a developed state. This was facilitated by the favorable geographical and climatic position of the Apennine Peninsula, washed by the seas on three sides. The Alps protected from cold winds from the north, and the mild and warm climate throughout the year made it possible to adapt a significant part of the territory for farming. Along the coast, the lands were distinguished by significant fertility. Dense oak forests grew along the largest river Po, and herds of cattle grazed on vast meadows. By the beginning of our era, a large number of fields, orchards and vineyards began to appear. The Apennine mountains were not as steep and rocky as the mountains of the Balkan Peninsula, so they did not interfere with farming and cattle breeding on the slopes. Considering these features of nature and relief, as well as a favorable geographical position, the inhabitants of Ancient Rome were able to create a highly productive economy at one time.
