		Northern Latium is enclosed on the east by the foothills of the Apennines; further south, the Lepini Mountains mark the eastern boundary.
		Soon after this the Latin League was formed, and a military alliance was made with Rome to defend the homeland against invading Aequi and Volsci.

		It disbanded the Latin League, and it took land from those it defeated and distributed it among its plebeians.
		The effect of the Latin War was to tighten Rome's grip upon Latium and to provide her with more lands upon which to settle her ever-increasing agricultural population.
		Thus although the Latin League was abolished, the legal rights that the Latins had enjoyed among themselves were retained by Rome as a legal status, the Latin right (ius Latii), and used for centuries as an intermediate step between non-Roman status and full Roman citizenship.

	Roman And Latin League - Earliest Struggles
		The two earlier cities to which traditions most closely bound her, both of them Latin, were Lanuvium, in this sea-belt, her sacred Mecca, which she always treated with reverence; and Alba, her political fountain head, leader of the Latin league, whom necessity obliged her to ruthlessly destroy so as to secure her place.
		But Rome was of, and yet not in, the Latin league, maintaining her independence of action and exercising a special authority.
		First, of course, the cities of the ancient Latins, the prisci Latini, some of them, such as Aricia and Tusculum, merged in the Latin League, while others, like Tibur and Praeneste, were sufficiently powerful to act with individual policy.

		Even though MLB academies in Latin American countries were clearly part of the MLB minor league system, the Commissioner’s Office did not apply existing MLRs on minor league operations to the academies, nor did teams follow the MLRs in how they operated their academies.
		The scale of Major League operations in the Dominican Republic and Venezuela combined with the well-known and undeniable mistreatment and discrimination that occurs against Latin children and young men calls for nothing less than radical reform from the first not the last step.
		Reform of Major League teams’ operations in Latin America must be guided by the principle of harmonization–all minor league prospects regardless of their national origin, socio-economic status, level of education, or location of training should be accorded equal, non-discriminatory treatment and protection under a harmonized set of rules.

	The Baseball Guru - WORLDWIDE DRAFT By Arturo J. Marcano, International Legal Advisor, Venezuelan Baseball Players ...
		Apart from baseball recruiting in Latin America, Major League Baseball's recruitment of foreign talent is highly centralized in the amateur draft that covers Canada and Puerto Rico and the baseball agreements between the Commissioner's Office and foreign professional baseball leagues (e.g., the agreement between MLB and the Japanese professional league).
		Official MLB rules on recruiting and training Latin children and young men are virtually non-existent apart from the much-violated 17-year old rule, demonstrating that teams and the Commissioner's Office have intentionally avoided centralized control of the Latin recruiting system for reasons that cannot be justified.
		In the past, the MLBPA's position on Latin minor league recruits is that such recruits, and their treatment by MLB teams, did not fall within its jurisdiction as the bargaining representative for major league players.

		The Latin Festival (feriae Latinae) was originally held by a league of Latin cities, led perhaps by Alba Longa, who sent delegates to worship Jupiter Latiaris together, to deliberate and decide on matters of the confederacy, and to settle any disputes which might have arisen among its members.
		It might often suit their purpose either to hold the festival at a particular time or to delay it, depending upon the state of affairs in Rome.
		The central act was a sacrifice of a pure white heifer that had never known the yoke, and it was made on behalf of the whole league.
