Expression: "Rome wasn't built in a day."
Meaning: The Roman Empire, which spanned parts of Europe, Africa, and Asia, literally wasn't built in a day. In fact, it took a very, very long time. Although current projects are not likely to take nearly as long, the expression has evolved to mean that something will at least not be completed quickly.
Example: "This new project is going to take time. Rome wasn't built in a day."
