Why did Romans build Rome?
Rome did not actually conquer Italy (except for the North). It gained control over it by establishing alliances with the Italic peoples. This was not pre-planned. It was a development which was the result of the three Samnite Wars (343-341 BC, 326-304 BC, 298-290 BC) and the Pyrrhic war (280-275 BC). The Samnites were a large people of central-southern Italy (present day Molise and the mountains of Campania). They were a considerable military force. The first war was fought in Campania, just north of Naples. The Campanian city of Capua asked Rome for help against a Samnite attack . In the second war, Rome adopted a policy of trying to encircle Samnium (the land of the Samnites). She made alliances with some cities in Apulia, east of Samnium. She defeated five small peoples (the Marsi, Paeligni, Marrucini,Frentani and Vestini) in central Italy just north of Samnium (in present day Abruzzo). After the war, Rome consolidated its control of this area by making alliances with these people who, due to Rome's strength, joined voluntarily. This strengthened Rome's position against the Samnites. In the third Samnite war Rome defeated an alliance between the Samnites, the Etruscans, the Umbrians (in present day Umbria) and the Senone Gauls who lived in the present day Marche. These defeated people, except for the Etruscans, were then made to become allies. The Lucianans who lived to the south of Samnium (in present day Basilicata) became Roman allies because they had been attacked by the Samnites. Thus, the result of the wars was that Rome gained control of central Italy and the mountains of the south. The rest of southern Italy came under Roman control as a result of the Pyrrhic war. Pyrrhus was a Greek king. He landed with a large army and wanted to conquer southern Italy. Though he won victories, he could not match the size of the Roman army and gave up. Following this Rome took control in this area as well, again by establishing alliances. The Romans invaded part of the lands the Gauls of northern Italy because, they attacked Roman and Etruscan territories. In one occasion they got quite close to Rome. In this case there was a conquest. The Roman did not conquer Etruria (in present day Tuscany) or forced the Etruscans into an alliance. This was they were able to control this region without these means.
