Best Answer

Tarquins is a term used by historians to indicate the last three kings of Rome of the monarchic period. This is because the 5th king of Rome was Lucius Tarquinius Priscus and the 7th one was Lucius Tarquinius Superbus was his son or grandson. The sixth king, Servius Tullius was the son of a slave brought up at the court of Tarquinius Priscus.

Tarquinius Priscus defeated the Sabines and other Latin cities which attacked Rome doubled the size of the Roman cavalry and of the senate and undertook important urban development projects. Servius Tullius reformed the system of soldier recruitment and the organisation of the army, reformed the voting units of the popular assembly, created the Assembly of the Soldiers and completed the city's first full circuit of walls. Tarquinius Superbus was a tyrant. He was deposed in a rebellion. The Romans decided to do way with the monarchy and established the Roman Republic.
