According to Roman legends about the establishment of the Roman Republic, Lucius Junius Brutus (6th C. B.C.) was the nephew of the last Roman king,Tarquinius Superbus(KingTarquinthe Proud). Despite their kinship, Brutus led the revolt against the king and proclaimed the Roman Republic in 509 B.C. This revolt happened while KingTarquinwas away (on campaign) and in the wake of the rape of Lucretia by the king's son.
