Among historians and archaeologists, this is a hotly debated topic, because there is no one definitively correct answer, much like the questions relating to the rise of Rome and it's eventual fall. In my opinion, the incredible duration of the Roman civilization is due to three things: Rome's willingness to always adopt new ways of doing things, then adapting those innovations to suit their purposes, a strong military that allowed them to consistently keep order and expand their reach, and finally a strong and roughly stable economy. In other words, the very things that have made every great civilization before or since great, including Britain and America.

How did a civilizations last long?

By doing what a civilization does best. Have a good economy, a stable government, a good system, citizens, and many resources and trade routes around it. Civilizations generally were built near rivers, lakes, and oceans. Civilizations also are made on fertile lands, so farming can prosper. The most important thing a civilization needs to last long is culture, that will tell people who they were and what they know and discovered. If a civilization does most of those things it can last very long.

What happened in the roman republic?

The Roman Republic existed for over 4 centuries. It was the phase of the ancient Roman civilization characterized by a republican form of government. It began with the overthrow of the Roman monarchy, c. 509 BC, and lasted over 450 years until its subversion, through a series of civil wars, into the Principate form of government and the Imperial period. Because it existed for so long ... you're going to have to be a little more specific that "what happened?"
