Urban Management

Hi Guys,

It's been another day and everything is going fine so far. Today I really feel like writing about urban management.



Themes
As you can see, Londinium is located next to the river Themes (Themse). This really helps the city in providing enough food and trading with other nations. The walls around the city were really common in that period of history, because they help defend the city against the Celtics.

Planning
If you look closely, you will see that the roads are mainly straight. This indicates that the Roman planned their city's in stead of letting them grow unplanned.

Public places
In the middle of Londinum is the forum. The forum of a city is basically the main square where meetings and speeches were taken place. It was very common for a roman city to have one, much like the amphitheater. The Temples in the city are the most importants buildings. You can see that Londinium had 3 different temples.

I could tell you a lot more, but I'm out of time. Maybe a next time?

Later, my fellow inhabitants of the earth,
