"Why Roman Roads Like the Via Appia Still Exist Today"
Built over 2,000 years ago, Roman roads like the Via Appia are still drivable today, while our modern highways crumble within decades. This video reveals the forgotten engineering principles, materials, and long-term thinking that made Roman roads virtually indestructible. You’ll discover why asphalt fails, how Roman concrete heals itself, and what modern engineers quietly admit we’ve lost. Once you see the evidence, you’ll never look at a pothole the same way again.
