He played a critical role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. A politician of the Italian Socii, he formed an official triumvirate with Samnite general Pontius Fidelius and Roman general Marcus Valerius Corvus which pushed forward the integration of the Samnite Meddix Council members and the Roman Optimates faction into an alliance of mutual interests. Rallying the Samnites at the time when Roma needed support, Dentatus extended the Samnite interest as the first privileged ally of Rome which had benefited from being just situated in Samnium but also aided in the repopulation of lands

abstract	Dentatus Manius Curius (338 BC - Present) is a Samnite military and political leader and one of the most influential men in forging Samnite cooperation with Rome and vice versa. He played a critical role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. A politician of the Italian Socii, he formed an official triumvirate with Samnite general Pontius Fidelius and Roman general Marcus Valerius Corvus which pushed forward the integration of the Samnite Meddix Council members and the Roman Optimates faction into an alliance of mutual interests. Rallying the Samnites at the time when Roma needed support, Dentatus extended the Samnite interest as the first privileged ally of Rome which had benefited from being just situated in Samnium but also aided in the repopulation of lands even into further north of Rome, and he was also responsible for the growth of the city of Bovianum. After assuming control of the Samnite internal government, he began his policy of espousing cooperation between Roma and Bovianum. By strengthening his ties with Samnite ranchers and the patriarchal families that had ruled the five cantons of Samnium, he gradually turned the core of the Meddix Council and shifted its de jure powers toward his own tribunate. He was proclaimed Chief Tribune until the emergency wars expires, and during that time he heavily centralized the bureaucracy of the tribunate. Before he became a chief Tribune, he was an aide to his real blood-father, General Manius Liberus Curius, which served the Samnites by waging a defensive campaign against the Romans during Dictator Oppius reign. In 324 BC, at the age of fourteen, Dentatus joined the ranks of his father's army and quickly rose in his career and eventually became his second-in-command largely for his ability to rally the troops time and again. Both his mother and father died in 308 BC on his very birthday before turning thirty. This caused him to long for someone to love, to cherish and adore. From his father, he inherited fortune and command of the Samnite forces while from his mother, he inherited the respect of the Samnite population as well as the blood of the ancient Samnite family known as the Campanii. Two years later in 306 BC, Dentatus became the first Samnite General to be held as a foriegn hero of Rome. Chief Tribune
