a. They believed their city had a special origin and connection to the gods.

Explanation:

In ancient Rome, the legend of Romulus and Remus had important place in their beliefs and origin. The legend provided the people a divine and special origin of Rome and the Romans. It was believed that the two brother Romulus and Remus were the offspring of the god Mars. They were the ones who founded the city of Rome, therefore, the people believed that the city as well as the people had connection with the gods.
