The Founding Of Rome
After the fall of Troy, gods ordered, that the Aeneas (the prince), has to lead his people to a promised land in the west. There they joined forces with the Latins. At about 800 B. C. a latin princess birthed two twins, Romulus and Remus. These boys were taken from her and left to die next to the Tiber.
The both twins were found by a she-wolf, which fed and cared for them, so that they survived, but one day, a man killed this wolf and took the twins to his home.
When they were older, they decided to build a city (later knew for the name rome). They didn't kew who will make the rules, they decided, that the gods have to say, who will win. So they climbed every one on a different hill and watched for a signed. After a while, 12 vultures flew over the palatine, the hill were Romulus stand. After it they both fought about who will be king and Remus was killed. When Romulus was king, be build the big empire Rom.
By 776 B. C. the settlement on the Palatine had become a village of about 1000 People. Most of the people were farmers who lived in wooden huts and worked the land. Their main crops were wheat and barley.
