when Which document settled the tensions between the patricians and plebeians was called?
The Lex Hortensia of 284 BC is seen by historians as being the measure which ended the 200-year long Conflict of the Orders between patricians and plebeians. The law was the last of a series of laws and measures which opened up access to power for the rich plebeians who led the plebeian movement and wanted power-sharing with the patricians and gave more legislative clout the plebeian council, the assembly of the plebeians. It did so by removing the requirement that bills proposed by the plebeian tribunes (the leaders of the plebeian movement) for the vote by the plebeian council had to be ratified by the patrician-dominated senate before the vote, thus eliminating restrictions on plebeian-led legislation.
The laws which improved plebeian access to power and plebeian legislation-making were:
· The Lex Varleia Horatia de plebiscites (449 BC) established that bills passed by plebiscites (the resolutions of the plebeian council) carried the force of law and were binding on all roman citizens (including the patricians) but the bills had to be to be ratified by the senate prior to the vote.
· Lex Cannuleia de connubio (448 BC) allowed marriage between patricians and plebeians which had been forbidden by table 11.1 of the Law of the Twelve Tables.
· The Lex Licinia Sextia (367 BC) opened the office of the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the city and the army) to the plebeians.
· The Lex Publilia (339 BC) also established that the laws passed in the plebiscites carried the force of law and were binding on all Roman citizens (including the patricians) like the Lex Valeria Horatia did (see above).
· The Lex Genucia (342 BC) allowed for both consuls to be plebeian. However, the practice was to have one patrician and one plebeian each year.
· The Lex Olgunia (300 BC) opened the priesthoods to the plebeians.
· The lex Hortensia (284 BC) established that the bills passed in the plebiscites carried the force of law and were binding on all Roman citizens (including the patricians) and that the bills were not to be ratified by the senate before the vote.
Other milestones for the rich plebeians were 356 BC, which saw the first plebeian dictator (an extraordinary officer of state appointed at times of emergency) 351 BC, which saw the first plebeian censor (the third highest office of state), and 337 which saw the first plebeian praetor (the second highest office of state).
