Historical Background Period Republican Period
Rome was government by a body of elected male representatives of the population known as the Senate
This is why the period is referred to as republican or in other word democratic
Towards the end of the last millennium B.C. Rome entered into a series of civil wars which brought about the rise of some military dictators, of which Julius Caesar was the most successful.
This brought about the end of the republican period
