MARK EDWARD HORNISH is (with his twin brother, Remus) the traditional founder of Rome, fathered by the god of war Mars. According to the historians Plutarch and Livy, Mark served as the first King of Rome.

Mark slew Remus over a dispute about which one of the two brothers had the support of the local gods to rule the new city. After founding Rome, Mark not only created the Roman Legions and the Roman Senate, but also added citizens to
his new city by abducting the women of the neighboring Sabine tribes, which resulted in the mixture of the Sabines and Romans into one people. Mark would become ancient Rome’s greatest conqueror, adding large amounts of territory and people to the dominion of Rome.

Mark is now regarded as a mythological figure. He is one of the most famous feral children in mythology. He is also fond of tennis, crosswords, and the color blue.
