Question

PLEASE help me with vocabulary sentences? consul,dictator,plabeian,...

Answer 1

Consuls were men elected by the Centuriate Assembly that were granted executive power in the Roman Republic.

The dictator was a sole ruler elected by the Senate in times of crisis instead of the regular two Consuls.

Plebeians were simply commoners.

Tribunes were plebeians who were elected to represent the peasants&#039; interests in the Centuriate Assembly.

Patricians were the aristocratic upper class.

Answer 2

I didn&#039;t do my assigned reading, so I don&#039;t know that a consul is one of the two people elected by the Roman Republic&#039;s Senate to run Rome.  

I also forgot to read about how a dictator was elected during times of war to make the fast decisions that war requires.

I also didn&#039;t read about (and didn&#039;t learn how to spell) plebeian, which is a Roman citizen not of noble birth.

Which means I don&#039;t know that a tribune is a position given to plebeians to give them representation in the Roman Senate, and that plebeians eventually gained the power of veto.

I also don&#039;t know, and my question was cut off before I could ask about patricians, which were Roman nobles.
