Rome, located in the Lazio region, boasts a long and eventful history. A legend has it, the town was created by the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, the sons of Mars, god of war. Their father banished them to earth where a she-wolf found and raised them. Roman mythology tells a story of the brothers wanting to build the greatest city in the world but disagreeing on the location. The dispute was settled in a“casual” manner: Each of the brothers stood on his preferred of Rome's seven hills and waited for six vultures to signal Mars’ favor. Romulus won.
Historians tend to disagree with this cool mythical story but what do they know!
Whatever the truth may be, what started off as a small rural settlement quickly sprouted into a bustling city thriving under influences upon Etruscan and Greek cultures. Around 509 BC Rome already became a republic and, towards the end of the Roman period, an empire. Imposingly, it maintained its empire status for the next ten centuries, until the 5th century AD. During this time, the city grew to accommodate 1-2 million inhabitants.
In the Middle Ages (the 6th to 14th century) Rome suffered a decline while other European countries rose and prospered. Its rebirth didn’t come about until the very end of the Middle Ages in the period commonly known as the Renaissance. Actually, the fact that Rome re-emerged into its former glory was very much the result of patronage of the Catholic church. However, more political instability and foreign occupation followed the Renaissance. Things only settled upon establishment of the independent Italian Republic which chose Rome to be its capital city… And we are only scraping the surface.
