Greek colonies

Colonization of the Mediterranean by Greeks and Phoenicians

In the Greek city ​​of Sybaris on the Gulf of Taranto there is an uprising under the Telys. The 500 wealthiest citizens are evicted and flee to Croton . Sybaris then declares war on Kroton. Under the influence of Pythagoras and the leadership of the general and Olympian Milon , the Crotonians win, Sybaris is captured and destroyed. Then there is a dispute among the victors about the division of the conquered land. The Pythagoreans are defeated and Pythagoras, along with others, must leave the city and move to Metapontion .

Rome

According to legend, the seventh Roman king Lucius Tarquinius Superbus was expelled between 510 and 507 , with which the Roman royal period ended and the period of the Roman Republic began . (It is generally assumed that the year 510 was constructed in the middle republican period, and that Roman historiography was based on the overthrow of the tyranny in Athens. The beginning of the Roman Republic is likely to be set around 474 BC .)
