Waterproof concrete - built an empire. The Aqueducts engineering was staggering. It had to descend from the mountains it a specific slope or it would not work. The laid out most of the roads in Europe.

The Romans were so far ahead it was amazing. The Dark Ages occurred when Rome fell. Europe came out of it under the Holy Roman Empire.

The nice thing about Italy and most of Europe do not elect muslims to run their country.
