Linguistic influence

The language of Rome was Latin . Latin was imposed on all conquered territories, and had a great importance as a union of different peoples forming the imperio.Con Over the centuries , Latin was transformed and led to a number of European languages , Such as Portuguese , Castilian , Catalan , Galician , French or Romanian . These languages have many similarities and common words.

In Euskadi the influence of Rome was lower . For this reason Euskera is the only language of the Peninsula with its own origin, unrelated to the Latin.

Latin is now, along with Italian , the official language of Vatican City in Rome.
