One of the oldest cities in the world. The birth Place of the republican political system and western civilisation.
The city began as a small settlement established by twin Brothers Romulus and Remus nearly 2,500 years ago.
"All Roads lead to Rome" refers to the fact that all roads literally began in the city of Rome and expanded out to the provinces. The Umbilicus urbis Romae, a large cone shaped monument, marked the center of the city and Republic.
Augustus Caesar added the Milliarium Aureum which stood across from the Umbilicus urbis on the Rostra (the speakers Platform for political speeches). It was engraved with all of the Provinces of the Empire at that time and the distance from the monuments.
Today the "Eternal City" is considered , perhaps, one of the most romantic locations on Earth. Ancient edifices, music, good food and a long history is what Rome is most known for.

Rome is a sweet, loving, and a great guy. Hes always there if you ever need a friend. Hes got your back no matter what, and always knows how to cheer you up when your feeling down. Hes the kind of guy you cant live without no matter what. Hes a ladies man and seriously popular. Hes not the type that will cry but when he does all you want to do is be there for him, because you cant stand to see him like that. In all Rome is a hell of a great guy, who any girl would be lucky to have! If you dont have a Rome, get one!!!
