Legionaries and their function

Explanation:

  • A Roman legion was the elementary military component of the ancient Roman army in the period of the late Roman Republic and the Roman Empire. A legion was around 5,000 men in several cohorts of heavy infantry (legionaries).
  • It was generally convoyed by devoted parts of auxiliaries, who were not Roman citizens. A Roman soldier was a well-trained fighting machine. Most people think that a legionary was to fight, however, he would spend very little time doing so.
  • A legionary was highly skilled to fill the needs of the legion, engineering, security etc. So, Rome used them to build huge engineering projects to improve the lives of the local populations that they'd conquered. They would build bridges, sewage systems, irrigation canals etc. The legionary was also used to bring Roman culture, legal system, and way of life to newly acquired province, a process called romanization. And lastly, they acted as border security at the frontiers and police force to keep the peace in the cities.
