ancient Rome had three forms of government during its 1,200 years of history: the monarchy, the republic and rule by an emperor.The 482 years of the Republicfollowedthe overthrow of themonarchyin 509 BC due to the last king being a tyrant. The Romans vowed never to have akingagain to prevent the return of tyranny. The heads of the city and the army were two annually elected consuls. This is what made Rome a republic during this period. Arepublic is a political systemwhich is not ruled by a king, emperor, prince or duke. That is all that is needed to have a republic. A republic can be a democracy or a Dictatorship, so long as it does not have an aristocrat incharge. The republic then fell and was replaced by 500 years of rule by an emperor.
