Description:
ROMAN KINGDOM (753BCE-509BCE)
The Roman Kingdom, or regal period, was the period of the ancient Roman civilization characterized by a monarchical form of
government of the city of Rome and its territories. Little is certain about the history of the kingdom, as nearly no written records from that time survive, and the histories about it that were written during the Republic and Empire are largely based on legends. However, the history of the Roman Kingdom began with the city's founding, traditionally dated to 753 BC with settlements around the Palatine Hill along the river Tiber in Central Italy, and ended with the overthrow of the kings and the establishment of the Republic in about 509 BC.
ROMAN REPUBLIC (509BCE-27BCE)
The Roman Republic was the era of ancient Roman civilization beginning with the overthrow of the Roman Kingdom, traditionally dated to
509 BC, and ending in 27 BC with the establishment of the Roman Empire. It was during this period that Rome's control expanded
from the city's immediate surroundings to hegemony over the entire Mediterranean world.
ROMAN EMPIRE(27BCE-476CE)
The Roman Empire , was the post-Roman Republic period of the ancient Roman civilisation, characterised by government
headed by emperors and large territorial holdings around the Mediterranean Sea in Europe, Africa and Asia. The city of Rome was
the largest city in the world c. 100 BC – c. AD 400, with Constantinople (New Rome) becoming the largest around AD 500, and the Empire's
populace grew to an estimated 50 to 90 million inhabitants (roughly 20% of the world's population at the time). The 500-year-old republic which preceded it was severely destabilised in a series of civil wars and political conflict, during which Julius Caesar was
appointed as perpetual dictator and then assassinated in 44 BC.
