The Romans built roads even if they didn’t need them. Imagine you're playing with blocks and building a big tower, you keep adding more floors, even though the tower is already really tall. The Romans did something similar: they built lots of roads, even when some of those roads led to places that weren't important or were already connected by other roads. Maybe it was just part of their fun in being super good at building things.
Examples
- A path from one city to another where the people already walked along the same trail every day.
- An extra road built between two cities that were already very well-connected.
