They viewed themselves as the descendants of Troy, the mortal enemy of Greece. It was a weird hate boner for Greece, who had colonies in Italy during the early years of Rome, so Romans set themselves up as rivals to Greece.
Which is weird cuz from my understanding Greece did pretty well under Rome. I was an exchange student in Greece and they literally have monuments there to “beloved Romans” who were viewed as good leaders under Roman administration. Plus there were Roman Emperors who were Greek nerds, Hadrian being the biggest example.
