The Roman Kingdom (Latin: Regnum Romanum) was the monarchical government of the city of Rome and its territories. Ancient Rome as you know it was officially a republic . The later Roman Emperors are not emperors in the European sense, but a dictator that was given total rule by the senate to solve an immediate problem (usually a war). Officially to have rule over a limited time, but the first thing the emperor did was make himself ruler for life.
And don't forget Rome wasn't the only player in town. There were plenty kingdoms around.
