The Romans were fed up with the abuses of their kings. After a particularly heinous crime, the Etruscan kings were expelled and driven from Rome. The Romans went on to establish a republic, a government that is run by the people who elect their own leaders.

The early Romans around the year of 500 BC BCE began a new form of government after the last king was deposed. They chose the form of a republic to be the foundation of the new Roman government. The citizens believed that a republic, where the powers were shared between the wealthy senators and the Popular Assembly would be the best way to never revert to one man gaining sole power and becoming a king. Thus each year, the Assembly would elect from the Senate two men to serve as consuls. They handled most everything in Rome inasmuch that Rome was still a small city state. The consuls could only serve one year.

The Romans decided to form a republic because they no longer would tolerate the tyrant of the kings. They wanted a government where the people (themselves) had a say in the running of things.

A republic, Romans thought, would keep any individual from gaining too much power!

Rome formed its republic after ousting the last king because it no longer wanted a one-man- rule. They preferred to be ruled by a consensus of men.
