During this time Rome was ruled by the Etruscans. Rome was divided into two parts, the Patricians, and the Plebeians. The patricians were wealthy citizens and almost like Aristocrats in their political and wealth standpoint. The Plebeians were almost all peasants, laborers, and shopkeepers. They could do nothing about politics. Plebeians made up 95% of the Roman population.
During this period the patricians come to a disliking of Etruscan rule. In 509 B.C.E. Lucius Junius Brutus drove the Etruscans away and created a republic. They put most of the power to the senate who served for life as judges and voters for government officials while advising the consuls. Two elected patricians were “consuls”, or people who command the army.
The new government was important and one step closer to democracy, but only patricians were allowed to do anything political.
Before this time, Rome is a republic but it is only ruled by patricians. So plebeians were not even treated like people. Patricians made the law, plebeians had to obey them, and since the patricians didn’t right the law down, they could manipulate to better the rich and worsen the poor. The poor had to fight for everything they wanted because they had no political rights. The fight between the two classes is known as “Conflict of Orders”. It was especially tense during war because plebeians
The plebeian’s revolt lead many changes for example in the plebeians demanded laws be written down so patricians couldn’t change them. In 451 B.C.E. it happened.
Finally there is an air of equality. In 287 B.C.E. the plebeians are allowed to vote and pass laws. They can become consuls, tribunes, and be part of something called the Citizens Association. Rome is now ruled by a government called a constitution, where the people follow a basic set of laws.

In 367 B.C.E. the patricians and plebeians made a new law. This law said that 1 of the 2 consuls had to be a plebeian. Consuls before this got to have seats in the Senate so this also allowed the plebeians to be part of the Senate. This changed Rome's government because now there were plebeians at the highest ranking who got to make bigger decisions. Now the government, since there were plebeians, would make good decisions for the people not just the patricians.
In 451 B.C.E. the plebians got to have tribunes who spoke for them against the Senate. The downside was that the Council of Plebs could only make laws for plebeians not patricians. But the plebeians demanded that laws be written down and then came the 12 tables. This changed the government because it showed that the patricians were giving in and that equality would soon come.
The Etruscans ruled of Rome started at 616 B.C.E. The Roman/Etruscan society had 2 classes; the patricians who were the higher class, and the plebeians who were the lower class. Patricians were the kings advisors, while the plebeians had no voice in the government and were forced to serve in the army.
Etruscan rule ended in 509 B.C.E. A group of patricians led by Lucius Junius Brutus drove out the Etruscan king and created a republic. This affected the Roman society because monarchy was taken away, but the patricians took over and they only care about themselves so they didn't let the plebeians be part of the Senate or a consul.
The plebeians were getting tired of the patricians making laws and changing them in their favor. In 494 B.C.E. Rome population was about 20,000 people; most of them plebeian, so the plebeians decided to rebel against their lack of power. They camped out on a nearby hill and the patricians panicked because without the plebeians they wouldn't be able to protect themselves from an attack. This changed Roman government because the Council of Plebs gained power to veto the Senate's actions.
In 287 B.C.E. the plebeians were able to pass laws for themselves and patricians. The Citizen's Association could either aprrove of the law or reject it. The Romans made a constitution which had laws that everyone had to follow. EVERYONE. I think this is important because the 200 year stuggle of the plebeians finally paid off. This is also important because this affected our government. Like Republican and Democrat.
