What individual would belong to the Roman Empire's senatorial class?

Originally, after expelling the kings, it was the top-class, the Patriarchs which took over and formed the Senate, but the lower class, the Plebs soon forced them to accept membership of their representatives - one of the two annual consuls had to be a pleb, and the consuls automatically got membership pf the senate, so the number of plebs in the Senate grew. Then the Plebs forced creation of ten Tribunes of the Plebs who attended the Senate and had veto powers, and these also became senators at the end of their term of office. So the proportion of Plebs who were senators grew even further. By the time of the civil wars, when many patricians were killed, the Patriarchs had declined so much as to no longer be a power in the Senate, and the title became an honorific.

Why were Rome's patricians so concerned when the plebeians elected their own council?

Rome's patricians were concerned when the plebeians elected their own council, known as the Tribune of the Plebs, because it represented a shift in power dynamics that threatened their elite status and control over the Roman political system. The plebeians, who were the common citizens, gained a voice to advocate for their interests and challenge patrician authority, which could lead to significant social and political reforms. This development heightened fears among patricians of losing their privileges and influence, potentially destabilizing the traditional hierarchies in Roman society.


What did the Romans call the common famers and workers who had to protest to get voice in government?

Roman society was divided into Patricians and Plebeians. The Patricians were hereditary top class, the Plebs were divided into five classes, according their wealth or lack of it, so the common farmers were in the lower of the five classes, according to their assets. There were very rich plebs eg Cicero, and very poor ones - agricultural and city labourers.


In Ancient Rome what were ordinary citizens called?

People of little wealth or standing were commonly called plebians, rich people on the other hand were called Patricians
