Mr. Munawar

Rome has always possessed a special importance as capital of ancient world, then as capital of Christendom. As the seat of Papacy, Rome commands the alliegiance of more than Six hundred million Catholics.... It is the most important religious city of Catholics.

SO you can yourself deduct the meaning of this Idiom.
It means you can not escape from the influence of Rome..... (Please Correct me if I am wrong)

Aslam O Alikam!
According to me it means:Traveling through some famous area or region, you don’t need any map or guide. You’ll get the direction by yourself.

Salaam,

"all roads lead to Rome" means there are many different ways of reaching the same goal or conclusion.

When you have multiple alternatives and the result for each alternative is the same, then it means that all roads lead to rome.

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/all_roads_lead_to_Rome

Etymology

Modern wording of medieval sentiment; apparently originally a reference to Roman roads generally and the Milliarium Aureum (Golden Milestone) specifically.[1]

Appears in the form Mille viae ducunt homines per saecula Romam (A thousand roads lead men forever to Rome) in Liber Parabolarum, 591 (1175), by Alain de Lille.[2]

The earliest English form appears to be “Right as diverse pathes leden the folk the righte wey to Rome.” in Treatise on the Astrolabe (Prologue, ll. 39–40), 1391, by Geoffrey Chaucer.[3]
[edit] Proverb

all roads lead to Rome

1. different paths can take one to the same goal
