ANCIENT ROME

About 387 BC, a city on the Italian peninsula began conquering land and building an empire. That city was Rome. Romulus and Remus, twin sons, were the mythical founders of Rome. The legend tells that they were found and suckled by a she-wolf.

For more than one thousand years, Rome controlled the western world, including Hispania (Spain). After all this time, they left us many things of their way of life and civilization, such as laws, buildings, bridges, art...

Rich families had many slaves and they liked gladiator fightings very much. These fights were held at the Colosseum. Romans also had a lot of gods for everything, even for doors, animals, agriculture or silence.

Civilizations have grown and prospered in Rome for thousands of years, which is why Rome is nicknamed "the Eternal City".
