1 Answer

4 votes

Superbus was the name of the last Roman King. He gained the throne through violent means and began to rule Rome in the same violent style. He was a Tyrant that pronounced himself supreme judge of Rome and would take possessions of any person by creating a case against them then judging the case himself and finding them guilty.

Due to this , people lived in fear and hated him and wanted to get rid of him. One day while Superbus was away on a military campaign, he was overthrown by a man named Lucius Brutus with the support of the nobles, the people, and the army.
