Prologue: Governments Change Over Time

The Roman Republic was led by elected leaders, who checked and balanced each other.  However, a lot changed over the nearly 500 years it existed; the Roman Republic became the Roman Empire, ruled by a single Roman Emperor. 

How did this happen, and how has your own country changed since its foundation?

Death of the Roman Republic (DOTRR) is an educational podcast, and any clips from other media is used to transform and elevate its educational content, using modern media to help people relate to a 2000 year old story. (Speaking as a not-Fair Use expert), DOTRR seeks to use Fair Use, in transforming media clips used for educational purposes, and in that Death of the Roman Republic will never make a profit (no advertisements, Patreon, etc.).  

*2024 update - Google Podcasts is apparently shutting down, I am attempting to upload to podcast to Spotify.  Fingers crossed this works, I nonetheless have an always will do this for fun, and do not seek to make any profit, and use media to elevate education (without outdated memes and references) through transformative means.
