Events
Politics and world events
Legend has it that Lucius Tarquinius Superbus becomes the seventh king of Rome after Tullia , Tarquinius' lover and daughter of the sixth king Servius Tullius , murdered her father. Tarquinius, grandson of the fifth Roman king Lucius Tarquinius Priscus , then systematically eliminates his domestic political opponents and all potential avenger for the murder of Tullius in Rome and reverses his predecessor's political reforms. Tarquinius is one of the three Etruscan kings in Rome, whose historicity is doubted by some ancient historians , but is largely accepted by Etruscology , at least in its core.
