How did the Romans rule differently from the etruscans?

Answer 1

1) Not much is known about how the Etruscan ruled themselves because hardly any Etruscan writing has survived.

2) Etruria was not a unified nation. It was a collection of independent city states. Although there might have general similar patterns, each city had its own system of rule.

3) If this question is related to the idea that the Etruscans ruled Rome during the 6th century BC, this a fashionable theory, rather than actual historical fact. This theory has now been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy, it rests on unproven assumptions and there is no historical record for it. Recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture.

Answer 3

Very little is known about the Etruscans. Hardly any Etruscan written material has survived and very little is known about their history. Moreover, Etruria (land of the Etruscans) was not unified under a single ruler. It was a collection of independent city-states, each one with its own political arrangements. In addition to this, Etruscan civilisation decayed and disappeared by the first century B.C. Therefore, a comparison with the Romans is difficult. Moreover, Rome had three different system of government over the 1,200 years of her history: a monarchy for 244 years (783-509 B.C.), a republic for 482 years (509-27 B.C.) and rule by emperors (27 B.C.-476 A.D,).
