What had happened to the twins' mother, Princess Silvia?

She was kept a prisoner in the Temple of Mars

She was killed by Amulius' guards

Why did Amulius want the twins to die?

Because if they lived, they would rightfully rule the kingdom

Because he was a very nasty man

King Amulius was hoping that Romulus and Remus would drown in the River Tiber. What happened instead?

A wolf found the twins after she heard them crying in the reeds. She rescued them and raised them as her own wolf-cubs

A wolf found the twins but left them because they were human and not wolves

A wolf found the twins and ate them

When the boys grew up, they became shepherds too. What happened next?

Remus had a fight with some of King Amulius' shepherds and he was captured by Amulius' guards

They stayed as shepherds until they were old men

Romulus decided to become a soldier

Did Remus stay imprisoned forever?

No, Romulus gathered more shepherds to rescue his brother

Yes, he remained in prison until he died

When Remus was freed, he told Romulus about who they really were. What did they do next?

They killed Amulius and the city offered them the crown as joint rulers

They went back to being shepherds

They let Amulius stay on the throne but lived in the city

No, they decided to found their own city and rule that

No, they decided that they couldn't be bothered

So they built their own city and ruled it together?

They built the city but decided that only one of them could rule.

Yes and they lived happily ever after.

They built the city and let someone else rule it for them.

How did the fighting twins resolve their problem?

They had a fight to decide who would rule the new city.

They played Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide who would rule the new city.

They decided to rule it together after all.

Romulus won and he then called the new city Rome, after himself.

Remus won and he then called the new city Reem, after himself.

It was a draw so they decided not to bother and go back to shepherding in the countryside.
