History
Rome's history dates back to 753 BC, when it was founded according to legend by Romulus and Remus. It grew from a small settlement into a powerful empire that dominated much of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
The city has been a center of art, culture, and religion for centuries. From the fall of the Roman Empire to the Renaissance, Rome has continually reinvented itself while preserving its rich heritage.
