Answer 2

Distance from Rome likely affect people in the Roman Empire as Rome had less political control over people in distant provinces.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The Roman Empire had a vast expanse and had in its possession all the areas neighbouring the Mediterranean Sea. According to the modern-day map of the world, the Roman Empire was spread in three different continents, that of Europe, Asia, and Africa.

An expanse this big made it difficult for the central administration functioning from Rome (the capital of the Roman Empire) to exercise control over areas as far as Caledonia and Hibernia in the northwest, and Aegyptus in the southeast of the empire.
