The founding of Nova Roma was prepared by five gentes, the patrician gens Cassia, gens Vedia, gens Iunia, gens Maria and the plebeian gens Caecilia. However, by the time of the Foundation Day, on the {{Mar 1}} of 2750 AUC (1998 AD), a number of people have been assembled as the first ever ''comitia'' in modern history to and witness the founding of Nova Roma and to elect the first government by acclamation, consisting of two consuls-censors, [[Marcus Cassius Iulianus (Nova Roma)|M. Cassius Iulianus]] and [[Flavius Vedius Germanicus (Nova Roma)|Fl. Vedius Germanicus]], one praetor [[Decius Iunius Palladius Invictus (Nova Roma)|Dec.

The founding of Nova Roma was prepared by five gentes, the patrician gens Cassia, gens Vedia, gens Iunia, gens Maria and the plebeian gens Caecilia. The primary founders of Nova Roma were M. Cassius Iulianus, Fl. Vedius Germanicus, Dec. Iunius Palladius, but instrumental to the founding was C. Iulius Iulianus, who put Cassius and Vedius in contact with each other. However, by the time of the Foundation Day, on the Kal. Mar. ‡ of 2750 AUC (1998 AD), a number of people have been assembled as the first ever comitia in modern history to and witness the founding of Nova Roma and to elect the first government by acclamation, consisting of two consuls-censors, M. Cassius Iulianus and Fl. Vedius Germanicus, one praetor Dec. Iunius Palladius and one aedilis plebis, Q. Caecilius Metellus. They were also the first four senators of Nova Roma.

Allegedly, there were 36 patrician founders (or 35 plus one plebeian). We couldn't have yet identified all of them.

The founders of Nova Roma, together with all founding citizens and the primary founders, were:

  1. M. Cassius Iulianus, primary founder
  2. Patricia Cassia, primary founder
  3. Fl. Vedius Germanicus, primary founder
  4. Priscilla Vedia Serena, primary founder
  5. Dec. Iunius Palladius Invictus, primary founder
