The origin of the city's name is thought to derive from the legendary Romulus. It was said that Romulus and his twin brother Remus, the two sons of the god Mars, raised by a she-wolf after being abandoned, decided to build a city. After an argument, Romulus killed Remus and called the city Rome, after him. After founding and naming the city, he allowed men of all classes to come to Rome as citizens, including slaves and freemen without distinction. Since there was a very high population of men in the city, Romulus wanted to provide wives for his citizens, Romulus invited the neighboring tribes to a feast in Rome where, before the feast ended, he led the Rape of the Sabine Women. All the men found a woman and raped her to carry their child. These children would be the city's first children. This magnificent and beautiful city would become the very powerful empire that at that time controlled the entire Mediterranean and much of the known world. Before it became a powerful empire it was a strong republic that only controlled a small part of Italy, but before it became a strong republic it was a gentle city controlled by people who weren't even called "Romans". The Etruscans were the historical founders of Rome unlike the mythical Romulus, the man who founded Rome. They were a group of people who founded the senate in Rome, the patricians and the plebeians, formed clientele and the Roman kings, although still dominated by Etruscan blood, had the power called the Imperium. We witness the expulsion of the Etruscan king and the foundation of the Republic of Rome. At the height of its power, Rome conquered the entire Mediterranean. They conquered huge chunks of Europe which in... middle of paper... inhabitants were originally men who owned land, wars took these men away as soldiers. They were gone so long that they left their families to try to take care of the land. Most of the time the family failed and left the family poor and impoverished and this caused a lot of damage to the Roman countryside. When peace returned, many of the former owners were no longer able to earn money there. The third change occurred in the position of the citizen esteemed also by the war. The army increasingly became a full-time professional force rather than a force of armed citizens, and those men were simply assembled into brigades for emergencies. One milestone was the end of property qualification for the service. The military manpower pool of Roman human power showed signs of drying up. If those without property could serve, enough volunteers from among the poor willing to serve would come forward.
