Civilization VI offers multiple civilizations for you to choose from, evolve and develop technologies. The Roman civilization is one of the most powerful civilizations you can use in Civilization VI. This guide will show you how you can play in Rome. 

How to play as Rome – Civilization VI 

The Rome civilization is one of the first civilizations added to the game series. The unique ability of Rome is All Roads Lead to Rome, which instantly gives you a trading post for any city you find or conquer. If the city is in the trade route range of your capital, they will also start with a road. 

This is one of the strengths of the Roman civilization because roads can help increase trading yields and reinforce the legion with your units. You will also get Trajan’s Column which will give you an additional city center building for all your cities. 

Legion is the unique military unit of Rome, which can build a Roman Fort. You will also get a Bath, which is cheaper to build than the aqueduct. Your main strategy for the Rome civilization is to simply expand and expand until you overwhelm your enemy. 

Focus on Iron Working and Political Philosophy and you should be unstoppable until the Rennaisance era because the Legions are one of the most powerful units in the game. To maximize the benefits of All Roads Lead to Rome, use it on a singular landmass.

You can go for the Domination route but you can also win using cultural and scientific victories. You will have the best early cultural advantage so you can learn new civics in turn. If you want to win this way, be sure to build a Colosseum Wonder and Bolshoi Theater.

For Scientific Victories, add a Library and Oxford University. You can also focus on getting battering rams and legions, conquering your enemies as much as you can. Promote your army and use the Oligarchy to gain more combat strength. 

The best wonders for Rome is the Terracotta army, the Colosseum, and Jebel Barkal. For the best government, we recommend the Oligarchy.
