This is the introductory chapter of the book, which focuses on issues related to integration and identity in the Roman Republic. It emphasizes that the integration of Italy under Roman rule was a complex process, which showed many local and regional variations. An essential requirement for a clearer understanding of integration in the Republic is to focus on the actual 'points of contact' that exists between Romans and Italians. The book focuses on the interactions that took place between these groups, the way these interactions led to integration, and how this led to greater cultural unity within the peninsula. It presents an overview of how other chapters of the book are organised. Keywords: cultural identity; political integration; Roman Republic
