Romans Form a Republic

After throwing off the Etruscan kings, the Romans conquered the entire Italian peninsula and

formed a republic. The government was dominated by the 300-person Senate. The chief

executives were the two consuls, though a dictator could be appointed in an emergency. The

plebeians fought for power with the patricians. Roman armies began to further expand Rome’s

territory.

The Decline of the Republic

During a time of unrest, Julius Caesar rose to power and became dictator—for life. The senators

didn’t like Caesar’s king-like status and some of them assassinated him. After a 13-year civil war,

Octavian became Rome’s first emperor.
