It rather depends on when in history you are looking at the City. There are about 1000 years of Ancient Rome, from its origins on the famous Seven Hills, when most inhabitants were shepherds and small farmers, to its height as capital of the Empire, when there were 1 million inhabitants and apartments rose to several stories in the crowded inner city. The central core was remodelled several times, most famously by Nero. The early history suggests that the inhabitants were particularly tough hill farmers, as they obliterated their much more sophisticated Etruscan neighbours and overlords, and gradually subjugated most of the other Italian states using only their native manpower. Although they were several times threatened by northern Gallic tribes the Alps acted as a restraint on their invasions. The southern Mediterranean was dominated by powerful kingdoms during Rome's early history, but none of them thought it of much importance, until its conquests reached southern Italy, by which time it was already powerful enough to take on Carthage. They were exposed to the culture of Greece via first the Etruscans and then the southern Italian Greek colonies, which had a lasting effect on Roman culture. The port of Ostia was sufficiently close for Rome, 30 kilometres, to enable the import of grain from Egypt and other products it needed as it grew into a great metropolis. Italy, despite the growth of latifundia, huge industrial scale slave plantations, was unable to produce enough grain to feed the population.
