What culture settled to the south of rome and influenced by sharing a language?
please help T-T

Three main groups of people settled on or near the Italian peninsula and influenced Roman

civilization. The Latins settled west of the Apennine Mountains and south of the Tiber River

around 1000 B.C.E. While there were many advantages to their location near the river, frequent

flooding also created problems. The Latin’s’ settlements were small villages built on the

“Seven Hills of Rome”. These settlements were known as Latium. The people were farmers

and raised livestock. They spoke their own language which became known as Latin.

Eventually groups of these people united and formed the city of Rome. Latin became its

official language.
