Warfarin (Coumadin) is sometimes prescribed as a blood thinner because it is an effective vitamin K antagonist (blocks the formation of vitamin K).

Ancient Rome experienced three different types of government: Monarchy; Republic; Empire; While the myth of Romeâs origins involve Romulus killing his twin brother Remus to rule Rome and name it after himself, we know that the area was ruled by the Etruscans in the seventh century B.C. This means that Rome was under the power of a monarchy in its earliest period, which is a system of government that has one ruler. Evidence points to seven different kings ruling Rome at this time. However, sometime around 509 B.C., the citizens of Rome gained control from the Etruscans and established the Roman Republic.
