Answer:

-The crucifixion of Jesus was part of Rome's standard practice of using their legal system in conquered territories and appointing leaders, like Pontius Pilatus, to administer provinces.

-Palestine was connected to the rest of the Mediterranean world by a complex web of Roman roads and maritime trade routes, enabling Christian ideas to spread widely throughout the empire.
