However some major turning points in the history of Rome were the founding of the city, the ousting of the kings and the formation of the republic, the assassination of Caesar, the battle of Actium, and most importantly the assassination of Caligula. This killing gave the praetorian guard a power that had repercussions down to the latter part of the empire.
The Roman Republic went through many changes as it evolved into the Roman Empire. One of the most drastic changes was caused by Gaius Marius who was elected as consul for several years. He also began recruiting poor citizens in exchange for land. The next major change came from Lucius Cornelius Sulla who was consul after Marius. He took all political power from the Tribunes and the people and became a dictator.

He then expanded the Roman Empire further than the boundaries had even been before.
