> Here's an academic article on how ancient Rome influenced the writing of the US Constitution
Influenced. Not modeled on. Every republic since Cæsar has been influenced by Rome, including but not limited to its discussion on the relative benefits of monarchy, oligarchy and democracy.
> What Republic has had the most influence on the USA?
Not a republic, not technically, but the English Parliament, no doubt. Bicameralism, impeachment, an executive cabinet--these did not exist in the Roman Republic.
Of course, English democratic tradition was influenced by Rome's. As was America's. But it's a stretch to say the U.S. was "modeled" on the Roman Republic. It was a new system of government. (If one were to claim it was modeled on anything, it would have to be the English government.)
