Hello how may I help you? Who founded Rome? One moment while I process your request... ok According to legend, Ancient Rome was founded by the two brothers, and demi-gods, Romulus and Remus. Ok, what happened to Rome? In 476 C.E. Romulus, the last of the Roman emperors in the west, was overthrown by the Germanic leader Odoacer, who became the first Barbarian to rule in Rome. The order that the Roman Empire had brought to western Europe for 1000 years was no more. Ok, thank you. Glad I could help! Is there anything else I can do for you? Nope, that's all! Great! Have a wonderful day.
