Rome is the first metropolis of antiquity, which was significantly ahead of its time! While most of Europe was inhabited by barbarians who ate squirrels in the forest, the Romans were building a civilization. They already used toothbrushes and toothpaste, went to the dentist, walked on heated floors in the house, and even invented concrete (in fact, why so many architectural monuments have been preserved in Italy). And the list can go on for a long time. Of course, all this was different from the modern benefits we are accustomed to. And... quite strongly. For example, this is how the Romans used public toilets.
