Answer 1

A) Mountains to the north, water to the east, south, and west

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the Roman Empire was in modern-day Italy so since there are no deserts in Europe the answer can be no other than A. Every other answer has a desert in it. Italy is surrounded by sea from all sides but North. In the North, there are the Alps that stretch from France to Austria. Since Italy is a Mediterranean country it is bordered by the Adriatic Sea, the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Ionian Sea.
