Why did plebeians strike?

This is a very good question. If you don't know, Plebeians didn't have all the rights that patricians did. They had limited voices in the government and were less important then the patricians. The Plebeians didn't like what they had so they striked and marched out of Rome. They refused to return to Rome until they had the same rights as the Patricians did. So finally, the Patricians agreed and Plebeians had more rights but still not as much as the Patricians. Though, they made a 3rd group and elected leaders called "Tribunes". Since there were more Plebeians than Patricians, the Plebeians were allowed to control the 3rd group.
