So, this book will feature a lot of names of locations and settings that you may not know off the top of your head. Since this Ancient Rome, I will be using the Roman/Latin names rather than the modern Anglicized names. This guide will provide the Roman/Latin name and the modern locations that they correlate to. This is to make reading the book as easy to figure out as possible! If you ever forget a location, you can always refer to this guide!
