The Legend of Rome

                                                           THE LEGEND OF ROME

There are two legends that describe the foundation of Rome. The two legends include twin brothers, Romulus and Remus. The twins grew up in Tiber River. If it wasn’t for the female wolf that saved them from their death there, they would have died. Romulus and Remus decided to build a city when they grew slitely a bit older. However, they were selfish and greedy and worked on it in two different sites. They argued over who’s vultures were better and bigger, one had 6 and the other had 12. Once Remus made fun of Romulus’s city, he snapped and decided to kill his twin brother. At last, Remulus took over and became the king/leader of Rome. He also named Rome after his own name. In reality, no historians or archaeologists know the exact date of when Rome was founded because it dated back a long time ago, but some say it was found in 753 BC.  As time went by, everything has improved in Rome. A form of government; republic and monarchy was formed, isolated settlements on seven hills united together to establish Rome, and the city was extended and agricultural & trade industries were developed. However, the Latins were also part of something. The Latins were local people, and they became Legions- in order to protect themselves from invaders. This is where real Rome has started as a political country. All in all, there were many, many, myths that tell who founded Rome, and how it was founded, but this one is one of the most reliable legend of the two twin brothers.
