The Etruscan never ruled the peninsula. They were one of several peoples who occupied ancient Italy. Etruscan territory was not a coherent empire or kingdom. It consisted of independent city-states which never were united. They ruled their portion of the peninsula with each city-state being totally independent from the other.
