The most powerful Magistrates in Rome

A consul served in the highest elected political office of the Roman Republic and Empire.During the time of ancient Rome as a republic, the consuls were the highest civil and military magistrates, serving as the heads of government for the Republic. An election occurred every year for new consul members. There were two consuls, and they ruled together. However, after the establishment of the Empire, the consuls were merely a figurative representative of Rome's republican heritage and held very little power and authority, with the emperor acting as the supreme leader.-Courtesy of Wikipedia :-)
In Rome's government the consuls made sure no dictator got to much power and made other decisions for the government of Rome. The highest officials in the Roman Republic were the consuls. The consuls commanded and led the army. They also made sure that taxes were collected and laws carried out. A consul held office for only one year, so that made it difficult for any consul to grow to powerful
