Historical stories of ancient Rome
According to Roman mythology, Rome was founded in 2 1 BC and in April 753 by twins romulus and remus, who were raised by a female wolf. It was originally built on seven beautiful hills, so it was called "Seven Yamanoki". Romulus and remus are the twin sons of the God of War and the priestess Rhea Sylvia in Mars mythology, so the Romans sometimes call themselves "sons of Mars mythology". King Amulius was afraid that when they grew up, they would overthrow themselves and leave their newborn brothers in the Tiber River. Fortunately, they were suckled by a female wolf and avoided death. Later, the two brothers were brought home from Mount Paladini by the shepherd Fastulus. When they grew up, they overthrew and killed Amulius and decided to build a new city. However, romulus and remus had a dispute over the location of the new city. Finally, romulus killed his brother Remus and became the supreme ruler of the new town. He named the city "Rome" after himself and became the first king. The Romans took this day as the anniversary of the founding of the city. Up to now, the images of female wolves and twin brothers can be seen everywhere in Rome.
