Pompeii was a Samnite city for centuries before it passed under Roman rule at the time of Lucius Cornelius Sulla (1st cent. BC). Pompeii was not only a flourishing port but a prosperous resort with many villas.
We don't know and probably never will know. There were other towns beside Pompeii that were destroyed and lives were lost. Pompeii itself, is not fully excavated. We have no census of the area at the time of the eruption, so we don't know how many people even lived around there. So it's unlikely that we will ever get a true count of all the lives lost.
The last year was 79 AD. Mt. Verivius volcanic eruption left the city buried under ash.
