• The first people were Latinas to settle in Italy then the Etruscans and then the Greeks
• Rome was in the middle of the peninsula on the Tiber River
• They drained out the swamp and that let them build on the land
• Tarquin the proud- He didn't feel like he needed to listen to people, he was a king, the people of Rome threw him out, He was the king of Rome/Italy
• Res publica- Latinas for the people's business- where we got Republic from
• Republic- part democracy, part monarchy- 2 consuls, part aristocracy
• The US got there government off of Rome
• Rome has 300 Senates and the US has 100
• House of Representatives is like the democracy
• Plebeians- regular people, middle class/lower middle class

• Slaves
• Tribunes were elected by plebeians to serve in the assembly
• The assembly was where the 12 tables were

• Senate only patricians
• Consul- is like being the president or king, there were two consuls
• US did government like the Romans did it
•   monarchy- consuls
• Democracy- assemblies
• Aristocracy- their senate
• If there is a huge  they would have a dictator take over for 6 months and the republic would be suspended it didn’t happen that often
• The dictator came from the council or assembly
