Even though the theory that the Etruscan conquered Rome became very popular and is common in history books, it is just that, a theory. It has now been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy and it is based on unproven assumptions. Recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture. The Romans never themselves never mentioned an Etruscan invasion.

What we can be sure of, as given by the Roman tradition, is that the Romans overthrew the Roman monarchy because the last king was a tyrant. A republic was established and the Romans were made to swear not to have a king ever again so as not to have a return of tyranny.
