Camillius
With their city destroyed a leader named Camillius attempted to rebuild Rome
and raise strong walls around her seven hills. Around 380 BC he organized what
was left of the army and introduced new tactics and weapons made of iron. He
even developed new laws regarding Roman citizenship. They began to regain their
lost territory and, with the help of the Samnites, a tribe from central Italy, they conquered the area again and this made them
the most powerful people in Latium.
