What will we learn? Origin & Geography of Rome The Earliest Romans (Latins, Greeks, & Etruscans) Early Roman Culture (The Roman Republic) The Punic Wars (Rome vs. Carthage)

Geography & Early Republic Setting the Stage With the defeat of the Persians by Alexander and the eventual decline of the Greek Civilization, power would eventually shift west towards the Italian peninsula The Romans would build an amazing empire filled with many different cultures and help spawn a brand new religion: Christianity

Geography & Early Republic Origins of Rome Legend says that twins Romulus and Remus were abandoned on the Tiber River and raised by a she-wolf Later the two boys decided to build a city Eventually Romulus kills Remus & city of Rome is named after Romulus

Geography & Early Republic Rome was built on 7 rolling hills of Tiber River Located on Italian Peninsula (Italy) Bordered by Adriatic Sea to the east Near midpoint of Mediterranean Sea Mediterranean Climate: warm year round- encouraged outdoor activities

Geography & Early Republic The First Romans Three groups settled on Italian Peninsula from 1000-500 B.C. The Latins Built original settlement of wooden huts Considered to be the first Romans Helped spread Latin derived languages to the area

Geography & Early Republic The Greeks Moved north into Italy during decline of Hellenistic Culture Settled in Southern Italy and Sicily Brought all of Italy, including Rome, into contact with the Greek civilization Brought architecture, democracy, and philosophy

Geography & Early Republic The Etruscans Skilled metal workers native to northern Italy Strongly influenced Roman civilization Influenced Roman arch Influenced Roman lust for killing (ex. Gladiator battles)

Geography & Early Republic Early Rome Early Etruscan kings and successors built temples and public centers in Rome The Forum was the heart of the Roman political life After Rome’s last king was driven from power in 509 B.C for being too harsh, the Romans declared they would never again be ruled by a king Instead they established a republic, which meant “public affairs” A republic is a form of government in which power rests with citizens who have the right to vote for their leaders In Rome, citizenship with voting rights was granted only to free-born male citizens

The Roman Forum

Geography & Early Republic People of Rome Rome was divided up into several different groups who struggled for power Patricians: wealthy landowners who held most of the power Plebeians: the common farmers, artisans, and merchants; majority of pop.

Geography & Early Republic Tribunes: elected representatives who protected the rights of the plebeians from patrician officials

Geography & Early Republic Consuls: two officials with limited power and one year terms; one controlled the army the other directed the government Dictator: in times of crisis, the republic could appoint a leader with absolute power to make laws and control the army; power lasted for 6 months Legions: military units made up of 5,000 soldiers

Geography & Early Republic Roman Power Expands Steadily the Romans conquered the Italian Peninsula As Rome conquered lands, people were absorbed into their ever growing territory Some people were accepted as citizens, others simply became allies Rome went to war against Carthage; a powerful city in North Africa The struggle became known as the Punic Wars (264-146 B.C.)

The Punic Wars

Geography & Early Republic Carthage was led by a brilliant general named Hannibal Hannibal assembled an army of 50,000 infantry, 9,000 cavalry, and 60 elephants intent on capturing Rome He led his troops up through Spain and crossed the Alps into Italy

Hannibal Crossing the Alps

Geography & Early Republic The Romans regrouped and prevented Hannibal from sacking Rome Rome defeated Hannibal in 202 B.C. near Zama Rome eventually defeated Carthage in the third Punic War extending its power across the Mediterranean Sea
