Best Answer

SPQR was an acronym which stood for Senatum Populesque Romanus (the Senate and the Roman People). It was the symbol of the Roman Republic. It was inscribed on coins, and placed at the end of documents made public by inscriptions in bronze or stone, in dedications of monuments and public works. It was also on the standards of the Roman legions.
