circa 500 b.c. and the Roman conqueAt first, Rome was just one, small city-state in an area of Latin-speaking people (called Latium), on the west side of Italy's peninsula. Rome, as a monarchy (founded, according to legend, in 753 B.C.), couldn't even keep foreign powers from ruling it. It started gaining strength from about 510 B.C. (when the Romans threw out their last king) until the middle of the 3rd century B.C. During this the early Republican period, Rome made and broke strategic treaties with neighboring groups in order to help her conquer other city-states. In the end, after revising her battle tactics, weapons, and legions, Rome emerged as the undisputed leader of Italyst of Italy.

That very first period can come as quite a surprise to a young girl. One day she is a carefree youngster; the next, she is a young woman, experiencing the start of menstruation, maybe her first mood swing, and perhaps even other premenstrual symptoms.

At the beginging of the city and of the republic the patritians were the upper class and the plebicians were the woking class. The plebicians gained rights equal to and in some cases superior to the patricans.they became part of the working class.by the late republic there was little differance in the polical advantages of either group. The plebicans had a slight edge on the patricans.

Actually it's a tad more complicated than that. Assuming you're referring to modern Romans, they generally reflect a mix of all of the various phenotypes that one would see throughout Italy as many people from northern and southern Italy have migrated there over the decades (and centuries too probably). The ancient Romans were much like the modern Italians, some were lighter and others were darker but there was probably a general prevalence of brown hair/eyes, brunet white/light olive skin tone, and sharp facial relief (again like today's Italians).
