The same as like it is now but without tarmacked roads and telephone lines

was it always this dusty or is it true Romans cut down trees en masse?

>cut downs trees en masse

Nearly every human culture has done this. Many Irish hill-prairies are not natural but rather the product of mass deforestation in the bronze age

Pretty much the same as now, but with more mountain lions and shit. Would have been far more marshy and forested. The Corrupting Sea is a good book on the subject.

Bit of both. A large part of some dusty areas is simply that the soil is unsuitable for most plants.
