The ancient Roman republic indeed provided a basic model of what became the United States republic. The Roman republic saw the value of balancing power between different sectors of its republic. It was certainly not a perfectly functioning government, however, dividing powers within the government was innovative to say the least. The American republic was a better one, however, the US Founding Fathers saw the value within the ancient Roman republic.
Roman ruling only influenced the American government in the fact that both governments were republics. The American founding fathers certainly studied the Roman government, but could see its flaws and changed them considerably. Many people try to read similarities into the two governments where they do not and can not exist.
ANSWER 582 years passed between theestablishment of the Roman Republic (509BC) and the Roman Empire (27BC), when the Roman Senate conceded to Octavian the title of "Augustus" with which he could exert also the religious authority, the proconsular power upon the Roman territories "not yet pacified" and the High Command of Roman National Army.
The Founding Fathers of the US and later the Framers of the US Constitution looked at the structure of the ancient Roman Republic as a model for their idea of the new US republic. Flawed as it was, the Roman Republic had what can be termed a government structure where power was shared. The US Constitution created a central government where powers are shared. It has been said that the US republic was the first one after ancient Rome's republic.
The Roman republic was founded in 509 BC.
The most important lesson the Framers or the Founding Fathers learned from ancient Roman history concerned the structure of a central government. The Roman Republic had many deficiencies, no question about that. However, the Roman system of dividing the powers of the central government, gave birth to the Framer's "balance of powers" concept in the American Republic.
The Founding Fathers saw the collapse of Rome's republic as a warning they learned that no republic could survive unless its citizens remained independent and devoted to public services. they also learned that Rome once had Dictatorship. Today historians admit that the Founding Fathers somewhat exaggerated the virtues of Rome's republic. Yet, the lessons they learned still have force.
