All the roads that lead to Rome

All the roads that lead to Rome | Human Interest | Scoop.it
From flowingdata.com - January 28, 2016 3:16 AM

"As the saying goes, 'All roads lead to Rome.' Folks at the moovel lab were curious about how true this statement is, so they tested it out. They laid a grid on top of Europe, and then algorithmically found a route from each cell in the grid to Rome, resulting in about half a million routes total. Yep, there seems to be a way from Rome from every point."
