Answer 1

The Romans used the Black Sea and Red Sea, among others, for trade to complement their network of trade roads, facilitating transfer of goods across the empire.

Step-by-step explanation:

In addition to the Mediterranean Sea and the Adriatic Sea, the Romans used several other bodies of water to conduct trade.

The Red Sea was crucial for trade with the East, allowing for the import of luxury goods such as spices and silks, and, along with routes through the Persian Gulf, linking to the maritime Silk Roads. These sea routes were complemented by a comprehensive network of roads, enabling the vast reach of Roman trade across and beyond their empire.
