Here’s the part that got cut off:

Throughout the Pax Romana, agriculture remained the primary occupation of people in the empire. Most farms were owned by independent farmers who seldom had surplus to sell. On large estates, however, a new type of agricultural worker, the tenant farmer, began to replace slaves. Each tenant farmer received a small plot of land from the estate’s owner. In return he had to remain on the land for a set period of time and pay the owner with a certain amount of the harvest. Meanwhile, manufacturing increased throughout the empire. In Italy, Gaul, and Spain, artisans made cheap pottery and textiles by hand in small shops. The most important manufacturing centers, however, were in the east, where cities such as Alexandria made products like fine glassware. The Roman
Empire also provided many opportunities for trade. From the provinces, Italy imported grain, meat, and raw materials such as wool and hides. From Asia, merchants brought silks, linens, glassware, jewelry, and furniture to satisfy the wealthy. Rome and Alexandria became the empire’s greatest commercial centers. Alexandria was particularly important, since Egypt produced grain surpluses with which emperors fed Rome’s urban population. All this commercial activity was possible largely because of two factors: the empire’s location

around the Mediterranean and its extensive road network. Ultimately there were about 50,000 miles of roads binding the empire together. Most roads, however, were built and maintained for military purposes. Local roads were not paved, and weather conditions often made overland travel impossible. It was actually cheaper to transport grain by ship from one end of the Mediterranean to the other than to send it 100 miles overland. Consequently, most goods went by sea.
