How does MQS look in the book with an assignment??
Open your book to pg. 7 ~ Analyze/Read the page.Question #1
What other ways can I interpret this map?
This map could also show that the Romans controlled the Entire
Mediterranean Sea. Question #2
Can I confirm that this map shows trade routes?
This is NOT a Yes or No Question!!!!
Yes, this map shows trade routes because it show roads. It only makes sense that if the Romans used roads to move armies and settlers, that they would also use them to move goods throughout the Empire.

or No Question!!!! Your answer needs to be convincing!
