History of Rome

Rome is situated on the banks of the River Tiber.
According to Varro's calculations, Rome was founded on April 21st 753BC.
Rome was first governed by Kinds (753-510 BC); then as a republic by consuls (510-530) and then finally by emperors (30BC to 476AD). During the middle Ages, the church established its temporal rule and Rome remained the seat of the Papal Court until September 20,1870 when the Italian Army entered Rome and the Eternal City became capital of a united Italy.
The Vatican, a small territory of 440 sq km occupied by St. Peter's Basilica, St. Peter's Square and The Vatican Palaces, is under the sovereignty of the Pope, and it has been called the “Vatican City State” since 1929.
