The founding of Rome began as a legend with the twin brothers Romulus and Remus establishing the city in 753 BC. More likely, Rome was settled between 1000-500 BC by three groups - Etruscans, Latins, and Greeks. Rome adopted many aspects of Greek religion and matched their gods to Greek counterparts. The Roman Republic was established in 509 BC and was ruled by two consuls and a patriarchal class system. Rome's power grew through the Punic Wars against Carthage and internal unrest. The First Triumvirate of Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus controlled Rome but their rivalry led to civil war and the rise of Octavian who became Augustus and established the Roman Empire

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
