One consequence of the expansion of the Roman Empire is that

**d) autocratic rule greatly increased.**

As the empire expanded, it became increasingly difficult to govern effectively, and rulers often resorted to autocratic measures to maintain control over vast territories and diverse populations. The centralization of power, especially during the later stages of the empire, led to a more autocratic style of governance.
