A Republic form of government’s purpose is to serve the people. It was established in Rome when the Patricians overthrew the last monarch/king Tarquin the Proud because King Tarquin wanted more power.

The Conflict of the Orders is when the Plebeians demanded more political rights because the Patricians were controlling almost everything since Tarquin’s removal.

Some Major Differences Between the Patricians and the Plebeians

Rights gained by the Plebeians over the years:

• Tribunes of the Plebs to represent their interests to the Senate

• Council of Plebs that could make laws only about themselves

• All laws were written down – The Twelve Tables

• One consul had to be a plebeian – in this way it was possible for a plebeian to become a senator

• Eventually could make laws that everyone (patricians and plebeians) must obey/follow
