Before the Republic there was the Monarchy. It lasted 144 years (753--509 BC). It was said that there were seven kings: Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius, Ancus Marcius, Lucius Tarquinius Priscus, Servius Tullius and Lucius Tarquinius Superbus.

When Caesar Augustus came into power the republican or democratic form of government became extinct. Although Augustus kept the appearance of a republic, he kept all the meaningful power for himself.

Plato wrote texts regarding the infrastructure of a Republic system, how ever Republic states were founded before than, often found in Greece and Rome.
Republic, just the same as now.
There was never a democracy in Ancient Rome, the closest it came was a Republic.
The Roman empire never replaced the republic. Rome was already an empire under the republican form of government. As soon as Rome began gaining territories and governing them under Roman law it became an empire. What is erroneously referred to as the "Roman Empire" is actually the Principate. This form of government came into being in 31 BC after Octavian won supreme power.The Roman empire never replaced the republic. Rome was already an empire under the republican form of government.

Julius Caesar actually contributed very little to the change in government. Rome was an empire under the republic. It's government was not changed from the republican form of government to the principate form of government (which is erroneously called the empire) until the reign of Augustus, fourteen years after Caesar's death. The only possible connection Caesar could have to the governmental change was that he accepted the position of dictator for life, foreshadowing the principate.Julius Caesar actually contributed very little to the change in government.

The Roman Republic lasted from the time of the kings until the civil wars in the first century BCE. The first Roman ruler that we call an emperor was Gaius Octavius -- or Augustus -- who ruled from 27 BCE to 14 CE. He didn't call himself an emperor, but "princips" or "first citizen."

This question is really an opinion, but I would say that it would have to be Greece because Greece layed down the foundations for both of the other civilizations. Actually no, it didn't. Greece was a Democracy where the people ran the government and Rome was actually a Republic with representatives. Considering the U.S. government is a Democratic Republic, I would have to say Rome and Greece influenced the country's government.
Ancient Rome had three types of government, not four. They were the monarchy, the republic and the principate. The principate (erroneously called the "empire") could be said to be divided into two types of singular rule, the principate and the dominate.
It lied within the rulers and emperor's. Occasionally in history when democracy came to be, the government officials had some power. Unfortunately, power was constantly shifted between the people and the rulers. Eventually, the roman republic decided to stay as a republic force. Therefore the power was given to the people and the citizens of Rome.
