We cannot point to any specific year and say that it was the date that the republic broke down. The Roman Republic eroded away over time. Some say it began to decline at the time of the Gracchi brothers, others say the war between Marius and Sulla. We do know that by the time of Julius Caesar the ideals of the republic were nothing but a sham with politicians setting up their own supporters in key offices, Caesar included. It was over in all but name, when Octavian won supreme power and established the principate. This could loosely be dated as 31 BC.
