Today in class Lexi and I did our pixton about Romulus and Remus. Romulus and Remus were brothers who were abandoned by their father. They were supposedly, by legend, raised by a she wolf and then Faustulus and Loba found them and raised them till adulthood. Romulus and Remus killed Amulius and then reestablished power with Numitor, their grandfather. Romulus decided to start his own empire and name it Roma after him. Remus started picking on Romulus, telling him his walls were too small. Romulus was so mad that he killed his brother in anger. Romulus continued with his empire, but all the people that lived their were criminals. They were not enough wives for them so they threw a party with a neighboring Italian tribe, the Sabines. During the party the men from Romulus's empire started taking the women for the Sabines. The Sabine tribe was so mad that they declared war but the women that grew fond of their husbands in Romulus's empire put a stop to it. Romulus then ruled with Titus Tatius.
P.S.- the link for the pixton is on Lexi's blog.
