Cheng Chen 2nd of October of 2006 4th Hour Belch, AP World History Chapter 5 Notes/Outline An Age of Empires: Rome and Han China (753 B.C.E. ? 600 C.E.) The Roman Mediterranean Empire (753 B.C.E. ? 600 C.E.) Farmer Republic (753-31 B.C.E.) From the Beginning Ever since the beginning of the Roman Empire, there has been a developing form of republic. The first king of Rome was Romulus. As Rome was more and more occupied, the Roman Forum (civic center) that was once a swamp was drained in 600 B.C.E.

However, the main power of Rome lies with the Roman Senate, an advisory council for the king and for Roman republicans.
