Roman religion was a polytheistic belief system that centered around the worship of multiple gods and goddesses, such as Jupiter, Mars, and Venus. The Romans believed these deities influenced various aspects of life, including agriculture, war, and family. Rituals, sacrifices, and festivals were essential to appease the gods and ensure their favor. The practice of ancestor worship was also significant in Roman religion, as families honored their deceased relatives through rituals and offerings. Additionally, the Romans adopted and adapted gods from other cultures, such as the Greek pantheon, integrating them into their own religious practices and beliefs.
