Early Rome Reading :)
After you have studied the information in the reading (hint, hint!)..answer the following questions:
1. How did Rome develop from a "monarchy" under an Etruscan king, into a republic?
2. How was the government of the Roman Republic set up? (Describe the difference between plebeians and patricians and the way each group was represented in government)
3. Discuss some of the contributions Rome made to western civilization.
As always, gather your thoughts..answer the questions in a comment...and make sure that you comment on another student's response!!
