An uprising followed the rape of an aristocratic woman by Sextus Tarquinius, the son of Tarquinius Superbus, the last king. This king was deeply unpopular because he was a tyrant. The uprising was led by Lucius Junius Brutus, the architect of the Republic. He made the people swear that they would never accept a king again. He used the royal guards to take control of the city and had the city gates closed. The king was away leading a battle and could not return to Rome.
The king was replaced by two annually elected consuls. Having to men in charge meant that they would counterbalance each other. The short term of office was to ensure that no single man could concentrate power in his hands. For the rest, the Republic retained the institutions which had existed under the monarchy.

People that mainly influence the Romans?
Roman society is said to have been influenced by two cultures, the Greeks and the Etruscans. The Etruscans more than likely influenced Roman society and Roman culture more heavily because Rome was surrounde4d by Etruscan territory and was ruled by Etruscan kings. The Greek influence came about as a result of Roman expansion.
Why was the roman language called ''latin''?
The name comes from the Latin tribes who settled along the Tiber. Their fight for autonomy from the Etruscan Kings was based in what was to become Rome.
