Rulers of Rome
- The first king of Rome was Romulus, and the last was Tarquin the Proud in 509BC.
- Rome then became a republic, and a group of men called senators shared power.
- The army grew more powerful, and the senators could not always control the army. By 49BC, Julius Caesar, a great general, ruled Rome like a king again, but some senators didn't like it and killed him in 44BC.
- A few years later, Caesar's adopted son Octavius took power and became the first Emperor of Rome.
