The main difference is in the effect on Europe. The Romans would never spread and unify western European cultures, Celtic cultures may have remained and developed in their own unique manner, the Germanic invasions may not have occurred in the magnitude they did without Rome, and all of the cultural traditions that were more Roman and less Greek would be lost to the world (of which there are many).
