It was said that the senate established by Romulus, the founder if Rome and its first king, had 100 senators and that Tarquinius Priscus, the firth king, increased this to 200. At some unknown time during the period of the Republic its number increased to 300. Lucius Cornelius Sulla increased it to 600 and Julius Caesar to 900. Augustus, the first emperor, brought back to 600.
