Ancient Rome, founded in 753 B.C., evolved from a monarchy to a republic, then to an empire under Augustus, profoundly influencing Western culture and law.
Latin, an Indo-European language of the Italic group, has played a pivotal role in shaping the linguistic landscape of Europe and beyond. Originating in the region of Latium, it became the official language of the Roman Republic and Empire, facilitating communication and administration across vast territories.
