    The great city of Rome was founded on April 21 753 BC. The legend of who founded Rome says that it was the twin brothers, Romulus and Remus, who were rasied by a she-wolf. However historians know that Rome was built by Latins, which is an Indo-European tribe. The location played by big role in the flourishing of Rome. The city was located near the sea and was in the middle of a trade route between northern and southern Italy.
