The original clans gradually declined and corrupted, while new clans rose, increasing the total number to more than 300.
The power-dispersed Elder Council found it difficult to undertake decision-making and defend Rome, and the old system did not fit Rome's development.
Thus, Rome initiated its own reform, transitioning from a tribal alliance into a monarchy era.
Romulus, who founded Rome, became the first Roman monarch.
To facilitate the smooth transfer of power and efficient operation of the system, the Mechanical God family only allowed Romulus to reign for a certain period.
As compensation, upon his abdication, he would be granted Great Authority by the deities, acting as the War God Mars's divine office.
Romulus agreed to the exchange, and in his later years, he withdrew from the forefront of power through a storm, stepping behind the scenes and entering the Pantheon as a deity, enjoying offerings and immortality, thus becoming the Divine Ancestor in the Romans' hearts.
