Roman Republic
The Roman Republic was the system of government of ancient Rome from the expulsion of the kings, traditionally dated to 509 BCE, until the rise of Augustus in the late first century BCE. Governed by elected magistrates and the Senate, it expanded across Italy and the Mediterranean, defeating Carthage and the Hellenistic kingdoms. It laid the foundation of the Roman Empire and, as accounts of the Macedonian Empire note, overcame the Macedonian kingdom.
