The king was required to appoint the tribune upon entering office and the tribune left office upon the king's death.

Supreme power of the state would devolve to the Senate, which was responsible for finding a new king. The Senate would assemble and appoint one of its own members—the <a href="/wiki/Interrex" title="Interrex">interrex</a>—to serve for a period of five days with the sole purpose of nominating the next king of Rome. If no king were nominated at the end of five days, with the Senate's consent the interrex would appoint another Senator to succeed him for another five-day term. This process would continue until a new king was elected. Once the interrex found a suitable nominee to the kingship, he would bring the nominee before the Senate and the Senate would review him. If the Senate passed the nominee, the interrex would convene the Curiate Assembly and preside over it during the election of the king. Once the nominee was proposed to the Curiate Assembly, the citizens of Rome could either accept or reject him. If accepted, the king-elect did not immediately enter office. Two other acts still had to take place before he was invested with the full regal authority and power. </p><p>First, it was necessary to obtain the divine will of the gods respecting his appointment by means of the auspices, since the king would serve as high priest of Rome. This ceremony was performed by an augur, who conducted the king-elect to the citadel, where he was placed on a stone seat as the people waited below. If found worthy of the kingship, the augur announced that the gods had given favourable tokens, thus confirming the king's priestly character. The second act which had to be performed was the conferral of the <i>imperium</i> upon the king. The Curiate Assembly's previous vote only determined who was to be king, and had not by that act bestowed the necessary power of the king upon him. Accordingly, the king himself proposed to the Curiate Assembly a law granting him <i>imperium</i>, and the Curiate Assembly by voting in favor of the law would grant it. In theory, the people of Rome elected their leader, but the Senate had most of the control over the process. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Senate">Senate</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roman_Kingdom&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Senate"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main articles: <a href="/wiki/Senate_of_the_Roman_Kingdom" title="Senate of the Roman Kingdom">Senate of the Roman Kingdom</a> and <a href="/wiki/Citizens%27_assemblies_of_the_Roman_Kingdom" title="Citizens' assemblies of the Roman Kingdom">Citizens' assemblies of the Roman Kingdom</a></div> <p>According to legend, Romulus established the Senate after he founded Rome by personally selecting the most noble men (wealthy men with legitimate wives and children) to serve as a council for the city. As such, the Senate was the King's advisory council as the <a href="/wiki/Council_of_State" class="mw-redirect" title="Council of State">Council of State</a>. The Senate was composed of 300 senators, with 100 senators representing each of the three ancient tribes of Rome: the Ramnes (<a href="/wiki/Latins_(Italic_tribe)" title="Latins (Italic tribe)">Latins</a>), Tities (<a href="/wiki/Sabines" title="Sabines">Sabines</a>), and Luceres (<a href="/wiki/Etruscan_civilization" title="Etruscan civilization">Etruscans</a>).

The king had the sole authority to appoint the senators, but this selection was done in accordance with ancient custom. </p><p>Under the monarchy, the Senate possessed very little power and authority as the king held most of the political power of the state and could exercise those powers without the Senate's consent. The chief function of the Senate was to serve as the king's council and be his legislative coordinator. Once legislation proposed by the king passed the Curiate Assembly, the Senate could either veto it or accept it as law. The king was, by custom, to seek the advice of the Senate on major issues. However, it was left to him to decide what issues, if any, were brought before them and he was free to accept or reject their advice as he saw fit. Only the king possessed the power to convene the Senate, except during the <a href="/wiki/Interregnum" title="Interregnum">interregnum</a>, during which the Senate possessed the authority to convene itself. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Military">Military</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roman_Kingdom&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Military"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Structural_history_of_the_Roman_military" title="Structural history of the Roman military">Structural history of the Roman military</a></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Kings_of_Rome">Kings of Rome</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roman_Kingdom&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Kings of Rome"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt><i><small>Years <a href="/wiki/Anno_Domini" title="Anno Domini">BC</a></small></i></dt></dl> <div class="timeline-wrapper"><map name="timeline_shl8n5p0ajknfvwlfe0094y2nnus3kw"><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Lucius_Tarquinius_Superbus" coords="676,19,774,43" title="Lucius Tarquinius Superbus" alt="Lucius Tarquinius Superbus" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Servius_Tullius" coords="578,19,670,43" title="Servius Tullius" alt="Servius Tullius" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Lucius_Tarquinius_Priscus" coords="462,19,554,43" title="Lucius Tarquinius Priscus" alt="Lucius Tarquinius Priscus" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Ancus_Marcius" coords="379,19,457,43" title="Ancus Marcius" alt="Ancus Marcius" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Tullus_Hostilius" coords="293,19,378,43" title="Tullus Hostilius" alt="Tullus Hostilius" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Numa_Pompilius" coords="194,19,266,43" title="Numa Pompilius" alt="Numa Pompilius" /><area shape="rect" href="/wiki/Romulus" coords="69,19,161,43" title="Romulus" alt="Romulus" /></map><img usemap="#timeline_shl8n5p0ajknfvwlfe0094y2nnus3kw" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/timeline/shl8n5p0ajknfvwlfe0094y2nnus3kw.png" /></div> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><i>Dates follow <a href="/wiki/Livy" title="Livy">Livy</a>'s chronology of reign-lengths.

Initially, the consuls possessed all of the king's powers in the form of two men, elected for a one-year term, who could veto each other's actions. Later, the consuls' powers were broken down further by adding other <a href="/wiki/Roman_magistrate" title="Roman magistrate">magistrates</a> that each held a small portion of the king's original powers. First among these was the <a href="/wiki/Praetor" title="Praetor">praetor</a>, which removed the consuls' judicial authority from them. Next came the <a href="/wiki/Roman_censor" title="Roman censor">censor</a>, which stripped from the consuls the power to conduct the census. </p><p>The Romans instituted the idea of a <a href="/wiki/Roman_dictator" title="Roman dictator">dictatorship</a>. A dictator would have complete authority over civil and military matters within the Roman <i>imperium</i>. Since he was not legally responsible for his actions as a dictator, he was unquestionable. However, the power of the dictator was so absolute that Ancient Romans were hesitant in electing one, reserving this decision only to times of severe emergencies. Although this seems similar to the roles of a king, dictators of Rome were limited to serving a maximum six-month term limit. Contrary to the modern notion of a dictator as a usurper, Roman dictators were freely chosen, usually from the ranks of consuls, during turbulent periods when one-man rule proved more efficient. </p><p>The king's religious powers were given to two new offices: the <a href="/wiki/Rex_Sacrorum" title="Rex Sacrorum">Rex Sacrorum</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Pontifex_Maximus" class="mw-redirect" title="Pontifex Maximus">Pontifex Maximus</a>. The Rex Sacrorum was the <i><a href="/wiki/De_jure" title="De jure">de jure</a></i> highest religious official for the Republic. His sole task was to make the annual sacrifice to Jupiter, a privilege that had been previously reserved for the king. The Pontifex Maximus, however, was the <i><a href="/wiki/De_facto" title="De facto">de facto</a></i> highest religious official and held most of the king's religious authority.
