Why was Rome built where it was?

Answer 1

The Latins chose the edge of the Tiber due to its proximity to a major Etruscan (a tribal people in northern Italy) trade road and its great soil. The Romans said that they settled at the edge of the river becasue their founders Romulus and Remus were found there as infants. That is unlikely, considering the legend has it that they were being nutured by a wild wolf. I hope I helped.

Answer 2

It is a region with many advantages:

1- It is close enough to the Mediterranean Sea to trade.

2- But it is far enough to be protected from enemies' ships.

3- It is protected by seven hills.
