In a pure sense, RPG is the type of game where a player takes the role of one or many characters and the story progress as the player's actions take place. The game takes place in a vast world (or universe) with diverse areas, cultures, people. The main purpose is to immerse the player making it feel like such world could exist.
The battle is a combination of strategy and management, because you may take control of one or many characters in battle and combat your foes. Other games add the element of "chance" in battle so things don't get too monotonous.
There is one big difference in Japanese RPG (JRPG) and Western ones (WRPG). The Japanese ones are character centric, where the characters you control change as the game progress. Meanwhile, the Western RPG are world centric, where the world and it's inhabitants change according to your actions.
