Ancient Rome had a very rich mythology, which was created largely under the influence of neighboring nations, primarily the Greeks. At the time Rome was formed, Greek cities-states were greatly established and powerful so that this influence is quite present in Roman mythology. However, thanks to the significant Roman writers, this legacy of the Mediterranean is far more extensive and an authentic Roman mythology was created.

The answer is: 1.
