If we make a map of the trade routes used during the time of the Roman Empire than we have to include the most important features that will give us a nice representation as to how the trade was going on.

The most important features on this map should be:

- borders of the Roman Empire: this is crucial in order to distinct the trade routes in the empire itself and the trade routs outside of it.

- terrestrial trade routes: they are one of the two routes through which the trade was going on, so it is important that they are marked properly.

- water trade routes: they are one of the two routes through which the trade was going on, so the sea should have marked the routes through which the trade ships were going.

- important trading cities: they should be marked because lot of goods were traded in them, also they stored lot of goods, as well as assuring protection for the goods and for the people involved in the trade.

- important ports: the ports are the places were all the trading goods come to from the trade through sea, be it for import or export.
