Answer 2

The Roman Republic was made up of the Senate and the Roman people -S-P-Q-R. The Roman Republic started in 509 B.C.E when the Roman people kicked out the Etruscan monarchs and people, although they still kept their culture. The Republic was established soon after. After the death (or assassination) of dictator Julius Caesar, the Roman Republic fell. The Roman Empire began soon after the Republic fell.

first the most powerful was the ruler, then the senate or governing body. next the representatives then the consuls. they decided whether to start war or not. next were the patricians or the rich and wealthy people of ancient Rome. then the 2 men tribunes. the tribunes were the men elected to make rights for poor plebians. that number soon changed to 10. the last and least powerful were the plebians they were farmers or craftsmen.

Answer 4

By "early Republic" I am not sure if you mean the Roman republic before it became an empire, the Early Republican period or the role of the Senate during the reign of the seven kings of Rome (754BC -509BC) so I shall answer all three.

During the reign of the seven kings of Rome the senate merely elected a new king that would have absolute power until his death.

The Early Republican period had the same rules as the Late Republican period however the senators actually obeyed the laws of Rome during the Early Republican period.

In essence the structure of Roman government during the Late and Early Republican periods was based on the patricians (the landed elite) at the top of the social pyramid and the plebs (the citizens of Rome) at the bottom. The patrician families were the descendants of the senate during the time of the first king of Rome, Romulus, whilst the plebs were merely anyone that was born in Rome.

The plebs weren't without power however as they could elect "Tribunes of the Plebs" and "Aediles of the Plebs" who could veto new laws.

The patrician offices were as follows; governors who were in charge of one or more of the empire's provinces, censors who conducted census' and overlook the treasury, aediles who organise public festivals and overlook building maintenance and pro-magistrates who also govern Roman provinces.

The offices of the cursus honorum (basically important and influential offices) were as follows; quaestor who overlook the finances, praetors who command armies and act as magistrates during peace time and there were always two consuls (military leaders of Rome who get voted in by both the patricians and the plebs) who were elected annually so no one man could rule Rome. One must also wait ten years before being allowed to run for consul again for the same reason.

There was also an office of temporary Dictatorship and master of horse (second in command) for military or social crises.

Hope this helps!

Answer 5

Power sharing was mainly divided between the two consuls. As the Romans were paranoid about kingship, they saw to it that there were two men dividing the authority. The lower governmental positions could be loosely considered delegated positions as far as power went. Although the quaestors and praetors were elected offices, they had clearly defined jobs while the consuls were responsible for overseeing the entire government.
