The Roman Republic was a form of government in which the people would choose the representatives to govern them, which means that the elected the senate and assembly made the laws.

∙ 9y agoThe Athenian democracy was a direct democracy, meaning the people themselves voted on bills and legislation. The Roman Republic had a complex system that involved a constitution and a separation of power.

How might the constitution have been different if women, blacks other minorities had also been delegates at the constitution convention?
America is based on Roman republicanism mixed with Athenian democracy. I think if the Founding Fathers were from other backgrounds, America wouldn’t be based on Greco-Roman governance. If women were part of the founding of America politically, I think America might have ended up as a confederacy like Switzerland. A country were it is hard to pass anything federally, like a declaration of war. This is my opinion.

The Rome was not a democracy, but a republic. A republic (res publica or thing of the people) is a form of government in which those with a vote elect representatives to act for them in a legislative body.The Greeks had democracies in Athens and some of their other city-states. A democracy (from Greek words meaning rule by the people) is a form of government in which those with a vote meet directly as a legislative body to make decisions and pass laws.
Is Roman society freer and more open than athenian society?
It depends on what group you are referring to. The Athenian democracy involved more people in a direct process. Unfortunately, there were so many people who were not allowed to participate as citizens. To be an Athenian citizen, one had to be free-born males, with both parents being Athenian, and must have completed military training. If one met all the criteria, he could vote, serve on juries, and pay taxes. Roman citizens were land owners, but citizenship could be offered to formerly defeated foes after the province had been annexed into the nation.
