Roman dealings with other states and peoples were strongly shaped by war, but diplomacy also played an important part, whether in averting conflict or in its preliminaries and aftermath. Over time, changes in the character of the political organization of the Roman state and in its external circumstances had an impact on diplomatic practice and procedures, but formal institutions for the conduct of diplomacy never really developed, at least until the final stages of Late Antiquity, and even then only in limited ways.
