How were greek gods depicted in greek myths? ?

Greek gods were seen as legendary heroes, all specialising in different things. Like Hermes, the messenger god. Or Zeus, the lightening god, every god had a purpuse, and peoole prayed to them when they needed help in that topic.

hope this helped :)

first, the romans stayed isolated because they had to defend their own territories from neighboring cities that were harassing them, like the etruscans. second, once the romans managed to defeat their neighbors, and started to expand their territory, they started to build roads and bridges. finally, now that the romans have covered their territory with roads functioning as highways, they could mobilize their legions faster to assemble larger military units in a specific place.
