The Roman Army

Intro

    In Ancient Rome, the army was a key factor in its domination of the world.  The Roman Army was way ahead of its time in its formations, tactics, and weaponry.  The world was under the mercy of thousands of these soldiers, who had the power in numbers and mind.  It was no wonder as to how they became the world power in its time.  The Army probably held more power than any other Roman body except the Roman emperor, who held complete control somehow, in a way that is incomprehensible to me.  So what did the Roman army do to become the greatest army of its time.
