History of Rome 569-540 BC
This is the fourth episode in our re-edited Rome series—a clean, bingeable path through the city’s legendary and early historical development. Originally part of our larger decade-by-decade podcast, this arc focuses solely on Rome, and this episode marks a turning point: the reign of Servius Tullius and his game-changing reforms.Servius Tullius isn’t just a placeholder king—he’s the guy who transforms Rome. In this episode, we look at the wide-reaching reforms he introduced, from reorganizing Roman society to laying the groundwork for the Republic. He’s born a slave (maybe), becomes king (somehow), and reshapes the city forever.It’s one of Dan’s favorites—and a must-listen if you want to understand how Rome went from monarchy to a Republic ready to roar.This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information: http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.

History of Rome from the beginning until 590 BC
In order to prepare for episode 219 we are rereleasing all our Roman History episodes...We kick off our special Rome series with the legendary origins of the Eternal City—Romulus, Remus, and all the myth-soaked drama that follows. From wolves and war to kings and augurs, we trace the early stories and semi-historical shadows of Rome’s first rulers, leading up to the reign of Tarquinius Priscus around 590 BCE. Dan leads the way (with great enthusiasm), and this episode sets the stage for everything that follows—from monarchy to Republic, and from myth to history.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryKings of Rome, Romulus, Servius Tullius, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius, Ancus MarciusContact information: http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryE-mail: zimwaypodcast@gmail.comhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.
