The Romans

Rome’s Geography Peninsula that is about 750 miles long north and south Plains ideal for farming Rome located 18 miles inland on the Tiber River Italy juts out into the Mediterranean making it a natural stopping point for Mediterranean travelers.

INFLUENCES From 1500 to 1000 B.C. Indo Europeans moved into Italy. (Latins and Etruscans) Greeks had settled in Southern Italy. Greeks provided Rome with Alphabet, artistic ideas for sculpture, architecture, and literature. Etruscans turned Rome into a city and gave Romans dress and militaristic style.

THE ROAD TO A REPUBLIC Early Rome ruled by Kings, some being Etruscan. 509 B.C. Rome overthrew the Etruscan King and established a Republic For centuries Rome would be at war with those around them By 264 B.C. Romans had defeated the surrounding states of Latium, the Greeks, and the Etruscans. Romans successful because of their diplomatic ways. Shrewd in allowing citizenship yet allowed states to run their own affairs.

THE ROMAN STATE Patricians/Plebeians Distrusted kingship because of Etruscan Kings. Rome divided into two groups (patricians/plebeians) Patricians- wealthy landowners. Plebeians –common workers and small landowners Both were citizens and could vote, but only Patricians could hold office

REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT

Systems of Law One of Rome’s greatest contributions was its system of laws. First code of laws was Twelve Tables, adopted in 450 B.C. Simple basic laws for small agricultural communities.
