Which consequence resulted when the Romans rapidly built roads?

💡 Explanation

Building Roman roads quickly often destabilized steep hillsides, particularly during the rainy season, triggering catastrophic landslides because the slope's angle was exceeded by the increase in material stress; therefore landslides increased rather than any hydraulic effect or reduction to agricultural capacity.
