The Tabula Peutingeriana is an illustrated road map showing the cursus publicus, or the road network in the Roman Empire. These public roads shown in Tabula Peutingeriana were built in the first century under Emperor Augustus to improve communication throughout the empire. At this point in the Roman empire, Rome had conquered many regions and there were more people that needed to be controlled and ruled over. This road was used to transport messages, officials, and tax revenues between the provinces.

There were stations throughout the empire, located at 12 mile increments, where foot couriers could hand off messages. The original map upon which Tabula Peutingeriana is based probably dates to the 4th or 5th century and was prepared by Agrippa during the reign of the emperor Augustus (27 BC – AD 14). The present map is a 13th-century copy and covers Europe. The surviving version is a 22-foot parchment. The map shows the entire Roman empire, the Near East, and India as far as the Ganges and Sri Lanka. There are no less than 555 cities and 3,500 other place names shown, illustrated with small pictures. A town usually consists of two houses, and great cities (Rome, Constantinople, Antioch) receive a medallion. Roads are in red, with each hook in the road representing a day’s travel.

Based on Tabula Peutingeriana and the text above, describe how roads helped Rome increase and consolidate its power

The section from lines 3-5 of the Twelve Tables suggest about Roman society is you'll either get a reward or get the reward taken away from you which will be a result of punishment.
Treason is a certain type of punishment
The punishment was I think putting to death of any man, a government establish that punishment for treason because to show what's the consequences if someone does something wrong.
The law "Putting to death of any man, whosoever he might be unconvicted is forbidden" means that if that man did something forbidden then they shall be put to death.
