Now all of them weren't elected. Several of them were dynastic, but it is an interesting idea. Now another idea that emerged during the Roman kingdom is this idea of citizenship. Now it's important to realize today, in a lot of countries, we think of, oh, everyone who's a formal resident of that country, you can view them as a citizen, or most of the people, you can think of citizen, especially maybe people born in a country, but that was not the case in Rome. And when we go into this Roman kingdom, I'll remind, and I do this in many videos, we're not thinking about this sprawling Roman empire that we'll see several hundred years later. At that time, Rome was really just in control of Rome, and over time, especially during the Republic period, it starts to expand and eventually have hegemony or dominant power over the Mediterranean and the Middle East, or parts of the Middle East, I should say, and in Southern Europe. But let's go back to this kingdom period, and what I'm about to draw actually stays true through most of Roman civilization.
