The Iberian and Celtic tribes have been defeated. Hispania has been pacified. The land is slowly feeling the effects of Rome’s prolonged presence on the Iberian peninsula. The process of Romanization has begun. In this episode, we take a look at how the Romans quite literally laid the foundations for many of Spain’s towns and cities, as well as made some important infrastructure contributions.  The Romans were brilliant engineers and loved building, and build they did in this land.
