    can sometimes threaten where people live.

    The Rise of the Roman Republic

    How did Rome change


    from a monarchy to a republic?
    Kings with broad powers ruled the city,
    with the consent of aristocratic senators.

    Some kings treated their subjects badly,


    and this led to unrest in the kingdom.

    Romans overthrew the king and formed a republic, in


    which citizens had the right to vote and elect officials.

    of 60160 soldiers.

    This helped the Roman army conquer many enemies.
    Romans signed treaties with defeated enemies. Soldiers
    from defeated armies joined the Roman army.
