Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Apennine Mountains run north to south along the Italian peninsula . The Apennine Mountains made it difficult for people to cross from one side of the peninsula to the other.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Via Claudia Augusta was the most important road across the Alps for a long time, but it was more than just that. It also connected the northernmost region of Europe with the south of the continent – even the south and east of the entire Roman Empire, which stretched all the way to North Africa and the Middle East.

Detailed explanation-3: -The original city of Romulus was built upon Palatine Hill (Latin: Mons Palatinus). The other hills are the Capitoline, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, Caelian, and Aventine (known respectively in Latin as the Mons Capitolinus, Mons Quirinalis, Mons Viminalis, Mons Esquilinus, Mons Caelius, and Mons Aventinus).

Detailed explanation-4: -The whole big area which Romans called Noricum, and which stretched across most of the Eastern Alps, was more or less peacefully incorporated into the Roman Empire in 16 B.C. The southern part, the mountains above the plains of Venetia, Romans took earlier, in the times of Julius Caesar to Octavian Augustus.
