THE ROMAN REPUBLIC CHAPTER 6 SECTION 1 The early Romans establish a republic, which grows powerful and spreads its influence.

Rome is the capital of present day Italy. Rome was the capital of the ancient Roman Empire. The Romans were a practical and hard-working people, and her sturdy farmers made good soldiers. Rome was only a small town on the Tiber River when Athens was at the height of its glory.

The Romans adopted Hellenistic culture. Rome grew to become a strong city-state at about the time of Alexander the Great. Their gods, arts, and architecture resembled those of the Greeks.

THE ORIGINS OF ROME Rome’s Geography The First Romans Site of Rome chosen for its fertile soil and strategic location Located on Italian peninsula in center of Mediterranean Sea Built on seven hills on Tiber River The myth is that twins sons Romulus and Remus of the god Mars founded the city around 753 B.C. The First Romans Latins, Greeks, and Etruscans compete for control of region Latins found original settlement of Rome between 1000 and 500 B.C. Etruscans native to northern Italy; influence Roman civilization

THE EARLY REPUBLIC Early Rulers Around 600 B.C., Etruscan kings begin to rule Rome Kings build Rome’s first temples and public centers Romans overthrow cruel Etruscan king Tarquin in 509 B.C. Romans found a republic—government in which citizens elect leaders

PATRICIANS AND PLEBIANS Different groups struggle for power in early Roman Republic Patricians — wealthy landowning class that holds most of the power Plebeians — artisans, merchants, and farmers; can vote, can’t rule Tribunes — elected representatives protect plebeians’ political rights

ROMAN LAW Twelve Tables In 451 B.C. officials carve Roman laws on twelve tablets Called Twelve Tables, they become basis for later Roman law Laws confirm right of all free citizens to protection of the law Citizenship is limited to adult male landowners Twelve Tables are hung in the Forum

EVOLUTION OF THE ROMAN FORUM History Channel video

GOVERNMENT Government Under the Republic Rome elects two consuls — one to lead army, one to direct government (Monarchy) Senate — chosen from Roman upper class; makes foreign, domestic policy (Aristocracy) 300 members chosen from upper class Democratic assemblies elect tribunes, make laws for common people (Democracy) Dictators are leaders appointed briefly in times of crisis Only for 6 months Chosen by consul; elected by Senate

MILITARY The Roman Army Rome Conquers Italy Rome’s Commercial Network Roman legion — military unit of 5,000 infantry; supported by cavalry Army is powerful; key factor in Rome’s rise to greatness Rome Conquers Italy Romans defeat Etruscans in north and Greek city-states in south By 265 B.C., Rome controls Italian peninsula Conquered peoples treated justly; this enables Rome to grow Rome’s Commercial Network Rome establishes large trading network Access to Mediterranean Sea provides many trade routes Carthage, powerful city-state in North Africa, soon rivals Rome

Carthage and the Punic Wars

Punic wars War with Carthage Rome Triumphs Rome and Carthage begin Punic Wars — three wars between 264–146 B.C. Rome defeats Carthage, wins Sicily, in first 23-year war Hannibal — Carthaginian general — avenges defeat in Second Punic War Attacks Italy through Spain and France, doesn’t take Rome Rome Triumphs Roman general Scipio defeats Hannibal in 202 B.C. Rome destroys Carthage, enslaves people in last war (149–146 B.C.)

Carthage was an ancient city on the coast of North Africa. It was a powerful rival of Rome. From 264-146 BC, Carthage and the Roman Republic fought three Punic Wars. During the second war, a general from Carthage named Hannibal led a huge army supported by war elephants from Spain through the Alps into Italy, a troop movement considered one of the greatest in history.

Hannibal could not be stopped. He was threatening Rome when Roman armies attacked Carthage, forcing Hannibal to return to protect his homeland. Hannibal later poisoned himself rather than become a prisoner of the Romans.

Rome settled things permanently with the Third Punic War. In the third and final Punic War, Roman armies burned Carthage to the ground and plowed under the remains. The people of Carthage were sold into slavery. With Carthage out of the way, Rome was free to expand into new territories including Spain, Greece, and Egypt.
