Question

To what extent do you think the Roman republic was democratic?

Answer 1

Answer:

The most elevated positions in the administration were held by two diplomats, or pioneers, who governed the Roman Republic. A senate made out of patricians chose these consuls. The lower class residents, or plebeians, had essentially nothing to do with the administration.

In the Roman vote based system, the congresspersons and other high positioning government authorities procured a great deal of wealth.
