Romulus

A biography of Romulus, the legendary founder of Rome. Romulus organized Rome's population into tribes and counties, creating the first Roman government.

In the heart of ancient Italy, a young man named Romulus gathers a band of outcasts and rebels to build a city from scratch. With no women to form families, his people face a bleak future of violence and chaos. Romulus devises a daring plan to secure wives for his followers by abducting Sabine women during a festival, sparking a war that nearly destroys his fledgling city. As his settlement grows into a powerful state, Romulus establishes Rome's first government, builds its walls, and creates a system of tribal organization. But his greatest challenge comes when rival senators grow jealous of his power, leading to a mysterious disappearance that leaves the city in turmoil. The people of Rome must now decide whether to continue under his divine legacy or forge their own path.
