Why is Rome called the Eternal City?
One of Rome's foundation legends tells of the twin brothers Romulus and Remus. They were said to have been descendants of Venus (as descendants of Aeneas) and fathered by Mars. When they became adults, they decided to found a city of their own. Romulus claimed the new city should be built on the Palatine Hill and Remus claimed the city should go up on the Aventine Hill. They decided to settle their dispute by means of augury. However, augury yielded no solutions, so Romulus started to build the new city on his hill. Remus taunted his brother and jumped over the trench that would become the city's wall. Since this was a sign of bad luck, Romulus was outraged and killed his brother. So, as the surviving twin, he became ruler of the new city, which took its name from him.
So, Rome is derived from Romulus.

However, it also led to a loss of autonomy as they became more intertwined with Roman governance and culture.
