Latin is the language of the Latin people who lived in Rome in Apennine Peninsula more than 2000 years ago. Later, this nation conquered most of Europe and parts of the Middle East and established the Roman Empire. Latin became the official language of the whole Roman Empire.

With the development and progress of history, the Roman Empire disintegrated and many independent countries were formed. These independent countries combined local dialects on the basis of Latin and formed their own languages. For example, the languages of France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Romania and other countries have many similarities, and they are often called Latin family, which is the reason.
