Line 1: − {{Rome}}+ − The '''regal period of Rome''' extended from the foundation of the city in 753 BC to the expulsion of King [[Tarquin the Proud]] in 509 BC. The legends of this period were well-known to Romans of the late Republic and Empire, but historical records are few and unreliable. − − Accomplishments attributed to the regal period include the "Calendar of Numa," a precursor to the later [[Julian Calendar]], and the Cloaca Maxima, the world's first sewage system. − − == Romulus and Remus == − According to legend, [[Romulus and Remus]] were the twin sons of Mars, the god of war.
