The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- They provided efficient means for the overland movement of armies, officials, civilians, inland carriage of official communications, and trade goods.
- Roman roads were of several kinds, ranging from small local roads to broad, long-distance highways built to connect cities, major towns and military bases.
- These major roads were often stone-paved or gravelled, cambered for drainage, and were flanked by footpaths, bridleways and drainage ditches.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Roman roads article was read about 120,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 82: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
