The Roman Empire covered Western Europe up the river Rhine and central Germany, including Britain, the Balkan Peninsula (southeastern Europe) North Africa and part of the Middle east. At its greatest extent the empire also covered the whole of modern day Iraq (Mesopotamia). The emperor Trajan had pushed from Roman territory in the north of this area to the rest of it and reached the Persian Gulf by defeating the Persians. His successor Hadrian gave it back to Persia because he considered this area untenable. Over the next few centuries the Romans and Persians repeatedly fought over this area and Armenia, which back then covered the east of modern day Turkey.
The Roman Empire covered the following modern day countries or parts of modern countries:
Western Europe: Italy, Malta, Spain, Portugal, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Holland south of the river Rhine, southern Germany and part of central Germany, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Austria and England and Wales.
Eastern Europe: western Hungary, part of western Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova and a slither of western Ukraine.
