It is highly unlikely that the Etruscans conquered Rome. This was a very fashionable theory that has now been challenged. Its evidence-base is very flimsy. Recent archaeological evidence seems to suggest a different picture. What was overthrown was the Roman monarchy.
In the early republic the king was replaced by two annually elected consuls. There were two of them so that they could counterbalance each other and their term of office was so short to ensure that no one could accumulate powers in his hands. For the rest, the institutions of the monarchy were retained: the senate as an advisory body (now for the consuls instead of the king), and the assembly of the tribes and the assembly of the soldiers as the voting bodies of the people. These two assemblies were created by Servius Tullius, the last but one king.
