Best Answer

The rights of the plebeians were represented by the plebeian tribunes, the leaders of the plebeian movement Although they were not officers of state, they had the power to veto the actions of any officer of state which they deemed to be harmful to the plebeians. They also proposed bills to the plebeian council, an assembly of the plebeians where all plebeians could go to vote the bills proposed by the plebeian tribunes and elect new plebeian tribunes every year. Over time, the the laws approved in the vote of this council (plebiscites) gained the force of law which was binding on all Roman citizens, including the patricians.

How was the roman empire managed?

The Ancient Roman society was categorized into three classes; the plebians, patricians and slaves. The plebians were the poor citizens, the patricians the rich citizens and I need not explain what slaves are. The Roman Empire was governed by two consuls, a magistrate, the senate and the tribunes. The two cosuls were the head of the government and were patricians, the magistrates were made up of the patricians who took out roles such as legal advisors, finances, etc. The tribunes represented the plebians in the government as they; before the tribune was established; were able to vote, but it was not really counted. The senate was a body of ex magistrates who were very wise men who advised the magistrate and consuls.j
