Rome

The city in east-central Italy on the left bank of the Tiber River.

The traditional founding date for Rome has been established as 753 BCE, which is only twenty years after the first Olympian Games in Greece; beginning with the legendary orphan, Romulus, Rome was ruled by a series of kings until the Roman Republic was established in 509 BCE; in the Aeneid, by Virgil, the founding of Rome was accomplished by the ancestors of the Trojan hero, Aineias (Aeneas).
