Author Description

Excerpt from Ramble's Roman Stories Romulus was, therefore, the sole commander of the city. Soon after hewas elected their king: and thus we see that, in the infancy of society, men were chosen as rulers, who had distinguished themselves in the service and protection of their country. He established a senate of one hundred men, and divided the people into Patricians and Plebeians. At first the city was nearly square, built of mud, and governed the country only for eight miles round; yet this city was one day to give laws to all the world.
