According to Cicero, the reason that Rome was so great was that they had made the gods happy. This would be because if they would not have become great and successful without the gods then Rome making the gods happy by conquering and succeeding in many things would make the gods happy and Rome great.

Sry if my explanation went all over the place, but I hope you understand what I meant.
