Romans+Republic+caj

= R oman Army = The Roman armies were great because every one that owned land was required to serve in the army. Before they could serve in certain public offices they had to serve 10 years in the army. The Roman soldiers were organized into large groups called legions. Each legion had about 5000 heavily armed infantry, and group of cavalry. The legions started small but got bigger and bigger as the Roman Empire got bigger. One of the reason that the Roman's got so powerful was because of the legions that were forced to fight the war's that the Romans got themselfs into.
