Nice one! No wonder the Romans were so aggressive on the world stage - they were constantly struggling with everyone around them. Throwing out the last king was just the beginning. The conquest of the Latin League, the sacking of Rome by the Gauls, the fight against the Samnites and then Magna Grecia, Pyrrhus, the Carthaginians, Hannibal, and then the path to Sulla, Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony, Augustus - civil wars - whew out of breath.

[@EpimetheusHistory]

John Lemon the war he started against Alba Longa was over Alban sheep grazing on Roman fields. The war nearly annihilated both civilizations and came down to a combat trial between two trios of men - one Roman band of triplets, and one Alban band of triplets - and the last standing of the Roman brothers won only after both his brothers had been slain.

[@FoxwedeHistory]

Interestingly, the details about his warlike life are probably inferred from his name to begin with. The Romans thought his name sounded warlike too, so when they had nothing to work with, they decided that he waged a lot of wars and neglected the gods. There is really nothing we can genuinely say this fellow actually did.

When people talk about Ancient Rome they almost always talk about the either the Republic where it was ruled by Consuls, or the Empire where it was ruled by Emperors, but aside from Romulus and Tarquin the Proud, they almost never talk about the Kingdom where it was ruled by Kings and you'd think with 7 kings over the course of 244 Years it would be fascinating to talk about, and thankfully your video does just that in 7 minutes. Great job.

[@matthewhemmings2464]

KTChamberlain The problem is that there are no accounts of this period. Each king is reputed to have ruled a ridiculously long period, and all we know comes from the king hating republic. So basically an historical void.

[@josefmalar7837]

It is because of probable revealing of Slavic origin of Romans.

[@desmondd1984]

This was a good video but it's important to keep in mind we have almost no reliable evidence about the Regal period. When the Gauls sacked Rome in 390 BC, almost all historical records were lost. What we think we know about Roman Kings is almost 100% legend. There are also many anachronisms in the stories; reading Livy's account gives you the impression that the Republic emerged almost fully formed following the exile of Tarquin the Proud. In reality it probably took many decades for traditional Republican institutions to develop. There were probably more than seven kings, as all their reigns are implausibly long. The stories about the Tarquins are probably a repressed memory of Etruscan domination of Rome, as there seems to have been a definite period where Etruscan influence is undeniable, just from the archeological record.

Alternative history: If Remus survived he would have established the city of Reme.

Reme would also prevent Rome from burning the Great Library of Alexandria(the destruction of that library was a massive loss of knowledge,and it set back the progress of humanity for one thousand years), which is where all the knowledge was collected for milleniums, and now we would have that knowledge and we would be 1000 years ahead of our time.

Great video. I have one suggestion and one correction. Suggestion: mention as they come up which people are legendary, semi-legendar, or historical. For example, Romulus' life is almost entirely legendary, while some of the later kings are semi-legendary, with the last few being historical. Correction: The Roman Census was not the first census in the world. I know that there was at least one during the Middle Kingdom in Egypt, which predates the Kingdom of Rome by quite a few centuries.

[@qweteryFTW]

Wait arent Romulus and Remus a myth? P.S great art style

[@EpimetheusHistory]

Most likely a myth...but Romulus at least is probably loosely based on a real historical leader... archeology supports the timing for the 8th century BC for Rome's establishment and rapid growth....at that time essentially all Italian cities had King's so it would make sense that a king founded this city in the 8th century, probably from Alba Longa too...after all their histories were destroyed, some of the oral traditions were probably embellished and made more epic with Gods intervening etc... So probably there was a real chap maybe even named Romulus from Alba Longa who founded the city...but maybe the brother, she-wolf and the vestal virgin etc...were made up Thanks, I was thinking the Romans loved mosaics so I tried to go for a mosaic look for the video :)

[@Larsanator]

imho it is a myth but even more recent events get misreported to the nth degree such that the lie becomes the fact. Given that the Cloaca Maxima was the first structure in the foundation of Rome, and that it was built by Etruscans using Etruscan money; Rome was an Etruscan endeavor. The well founded Etruscans saw an opportunity on their southern border, drained a marsh that kept tribes living on the surrounding hills separate; and gave them farmland and a safe inland connection to the sea. Eventually the Etruscans over meddled to their doom.

Can you do a video on Esau and all his Descendants and where did they migrate to and how many of them are Grecians and Romans

[@aizac91]

I can answer that (Muslim here). The majority and I really mean MAJORITY of Actual Western European tribes/people (ancient and today) are descendants of Esau, older brother to the younger Jacob. The first son to Isaac, who is the 2nd son of Abraham (Ishmael is older by 14yrs born in 1999BC/3999); in a bigger picture, their lineage falls under "Shem" or Sam (In Arabic) second son of Noah/Nuh, but I'm sure you know that since your name states that and so does your question...Western European tribes started in Greece, that civilisation on the Crete island 3,900 years ago, give or take. Of course, this civilisation is "small and young" compared to the likes of Mesopotamia and Ancient Egyptian; but, it is nevertheless a civilisation. and that's where you get your Mycenaeans. Fast forward even further, after the collapse of the "1M" period, Greece was inhabited by the 'Dorians' and 'Sea People'. The Mycenaeans moved northwest where overtime after they moved to their new location, you'll hear people such as "Etruscans", "Sabines" and more appearing. What soon followed is the Romans, who are intermixture and descendants of those tribes I mentioned. The Romans eventually would give birth to more tribes of Western European, conquering the likes of Gauls (who is not the default ancestors of French people today, maybe some but not the majority) and others. Basically, the tribes that aren't Western are those that came down to mainland Europe via Scandinavia or through the Vistula. In simple terms, it must have nothing to do with any form of the Kurgan culture. Today, modern European anthropologists and genealogists cannot decipher where these tribes come from...the possibility of these tribes coming from the Pontic-Steppe has been debunked by the footprint of these tribes from various researchers, except those researchers that are Eastern European, they're still fighting today insisting that all Europeans are from that Steppe theory. You can see the bias-ness that they're playing here. Please, Please bear in mind, that I AM IN NO WAY SAYING THAT WESTERN EUROPEAN PEOPLE ARE DESCENDANTS OF ARABS. Before any of you that might comment on this post tells me I'm trying to push an Islamic "Agenda". I am not. Why? 1.Arabs are the descendants of Ishmael and that's that. 2.Islam wasn't even ordained to be revealed yet.

This seems to be a bit rushed. The real story is: Rome was a city they grew quite big and then were conquered/vassalized by the Etruscans. Who ruled for a few hundre years. Eventually the romans removed the etruscan kings from power and despised Depotism(kings) and never wanted them again. Leading to the start of the republic(after many attempts by the etruscans to reseat a king in Rome). Eventually the etruscans wound up in battles against greeks and were invaded by gauls, so they were weakended and rome took them on taking some of their territory and becoming a major player in the Italian Peninsula. The gauls then ended up sacking rome too.
