Revision as of 13:31, 10 August 2023
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.
The founders of Nova Roma, together with all founding citizens and the primary founders, were:
- M. Cassius Iulianus, primary founder
- Patricia Cassia, primary founder
- Fl. Vedius Germanicus, primary founder
- Priscilla Vedia Serena, primary founder
- Dec. Iunius Palladius Invictus, primary founder

The gentes as of 21 April, 1998
The records are incomplete about these earliest months of Nova Roma, but we can be sure that only those citizens belonged to Nova Roma until the first Parilia (Birthday of Rome, 21 April) of Nova Roma who wore the following nomina gentilicia. These are the first 31 gentes created in Nova Roma, all of which were patrician by default due to being founding gentes, except the gens Caecilia, which requested to be plebeian at the time of the founding of Nova Roma so that the plebeian element be present at the founding.
This list is supposed to be in chronological order, according to the date of the registration of the gens in Nova Roma. There are uncertainties about this claim due to the incomplete records of the early months of Nova Roma, so this claim should be taken carefully:
- Vedius or Vedia
- Cassius or Cassia
- Iunius or Iunia
- Marius or Maria
- Caecilius or Caecilia (the first and at that time only plebeian gens)
- Antonius or Antonia
- Octavius or Octavia
