A brief treatment of the RomanRepublic follows. For full treatment, see ancient Rome.The Early HistoricalRecordThe early RomanRepublic (509–264 BCE) and the preceding regal period (753–509 BCE) are the mostpoorly documented periods of Roman history. Historical writing in Rome did notbegin until the late 3rd century BCE, when Rome had alreadycompleted its conquest of Italy, established itself as a major power ofthe ancient world, and become involved in a gigantic strugglewith Carthage for control of the western Mediterranean. Theearliest Roman histories were brief résumés of facts and stories, but graduallyhistorians embellished the sparse factual material (such as the list of annualmagistrates from the beginning of the republic onward, religiousrecords, and the texts of some laws and treaties) with both native and Greekfolklore. Consequently, over time, historical facts about early Rome sufferedfrom patriotic reinterpretation involving exaggerations of the truth, thesuppression of embarrassing facts, and invention. Ancient Roman historians initiallydiffered over the precise date of Rome’s foundation. By the end of therepublic, however, it was generally accepted that Rome had been founded in753 BCE andthat the republic had begun in 509 BCE, following the overthrowof Lucius Tarquinius Superbus, the last of Rome’s seven kings. Accordingto tradition, the first six kings had been benevolent rulers, but thelast was a cruel tyrant who was overthrown by a popular uprising. The prevalent modern view is thatthe monarchy at Rome was incidentally terminated through military defeat andforeign intervention. This theory sees Rome as a site highly prized bythe Etruscans (the people of the central Italian regionof Etruria) in the 6th century BCE. Porsenna, the Etruscan king of Clusium, defeated the Romans and expelledTarquinius Superbus. Yet before Porsenna could establish himself as monarch, hewas forced to withdraw, leaving Rome without a king. Rather than restoringtheir king, the Romans replaced the kingship with two annually electedmagistrates called consuls.NOTE: All coins are shipped - FREE - USPS 1st Class INSURED.
