The Roman Republic was the period of the ancient Roman civilization when the government operated as a republic. The Roman Republic was founded in 509 BCE after the overthrow of the Roman Kingdom and predated the Roman Empire.

The government of the Roman Republic was heavily influenced[1] by the Order of the Ancients. After the death of the Order's leader in Egypt, the Roman consul Flavius Metellus, the Order recruited Gaius Julius Caesar, a prominent general and eventual dictator of the Roman Republic, as its new leader in Rome.[2] Because of Caesar's corruption, a group of Hidden Ones calling themselves Liberatores, led by Marcus Junius Brutus[3] and Amunet,[2] plotted the dictator's assassination, killing him in the Roman Senate on 15 March 44 BCE.[3][2]

Brutus and his co-conspirator Gaius Cassius Longinus subsequently fled Rome, but were pursued by the combined Roman armies of Marcus Antonius and Octavian. The forces of the Liberatores were eventually crushed, and Brutus committed suicide during the Battle of Philippi in Makedonia.[4] Octavian, Caesar's adopted son, became the new leader of the Order and accumulated more power over the following years, gradually dissolving the Republic.[2] Following a civil war against Antonious, which culminated in his rival's defeat and Rome's annexation of Egypt,[5] Octavian proclaimed himself Emperor in 27 BCE, establishing the Roman Empire.[1]
