After the legendary foundation by Romulus,[21] Rome was ruled for a period of 244 years by a monarchical system, initially with sovereigns of Latin and Sabine origin, later by Etruscan kings. The tradition handed down seven kings: Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius, Ancus Marcius, Tarquinius Priscus, Servius Tullius and Tarquinius Superbus.[21] In 509 BC the Romans expelled the last king from their city and established an oligarchic republic. Rome then began a period characterized by internal struggles between patricians (aristocrats) and plebeians (small landowners), and by constant warfare against the populations of central Italy: Etruscans, Latins, Volsci, Aequi.[23] After becoming master of Latium, Rome led several wars (against…

Another achievement of the Romans was in architecture. Romans invented concrete and thus made huge advancements in building things such as bridges, roads and aqueducts.…

Yes, I personally believe that under the correct circumstances and if it is in the best interest of the state in which the leader is ruling, and if they are causing massive damage that would be unstoppable otherwise it is ok to rid of them. However if there is a better way to take their power from them that is the route that should be taken. There are examples throughout history where rulers have been killed in unnecessary circumstances, and some where it was probably for the better. In Julius Caesar’s case though he was not really causing much harm to Rome or the Romans, but there were a group of people who believed he would become a tyrant. Brutus one of the conspirators spoke at Caesar’s funeral saying “Not that I loved Caesar less,…
