Romulus and Remus

Italy is shaped like a boot.
Once upon a time there was a king. His sister gave birth to two twins. The king knew that when they grow up they are going to be kings. So he told his servant to throw the babies in the water and make sure that they drown. His servant went but he did not want to see them drown. So he put them in a basket and put the basket in the water and it floated away and got stuck in some roots of a tree. After sometime, a female wolf came and found the babies and took them and brought them to her cave. Then a shepherd brought them to his wife. They were named Romulus and Remus. Romulus saw a bunch of houses on seven hills. He made his own city and made a wall around it. He said who ever climbs over it shall be killed. Remus said “I helped make it”. So he jumped over the wall and an angry man struck him with a spade. Then Romulus ruled.
