The Romans overthrew the Tarquins
because the last king, Tarquinius
Superbus
was a tyrant. The rape of a noblewoman (Lucretia) by his son (Sextus Tarquinius) while he was besieging the city of Ardea
led to a revolt. The Romans closed the city gates and Tarquinius
could not get back in the city. The Romans decided to do away with the monarchy, instituted the republic and created two annually elected consuls as leaders of he city to ensure that power would not fall in the hands of a single man. They also swore that they would not allow anyone to become king ever again to prevent the return of tyranny.
