Tribunes of the People created in Ancient Rome
Tribunes of the People (Plebeian Tribunes) created in Ancient Rome. Tribunes were elected, and had the right to propose legislation before the Plebeian Council. They were created when the Plebeian soldiers refused to march against the enemy when the city was at war -- as a bargaining tool the plebeians were given the right to elect their own officials

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Tribunes of the People, an essential component of Ancient Roman political administration, created in 494 BC. The Plebeian Tribunes were elected officials representing the interests of the common people, or plebeians, in contrast to the patricians, who represented the aristocracy. The plebeians held significant power, as they had the right to propose legislation before the Plebeian Council, which could then be ratified by the Roman Assembly. The creation of the Tribunes was a pivotal moment in Roman history, as it marked the beginning of a more democratic form of government. Prior to this, the plebeians had no official representation in the Roman political structure, and when they refused to march against the enemy during a time of war, they effectively used this as a bargaining tool to demand their rights. The Tribunes played a crucial role in the political landscape of Ancient Rome, as they were responsible for protecting the plebeians from the arbitrary power of the patricians and ensuring that their rights were upheld. Their influence extended beyond the Plebeian Council, as they could also veto the decisions of other magistrates and even call for the convening of the Assembly. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history and complex political structures that existed in Ancient Rome. The creation of the Tribunes of the People marked a significant step towards a more democratic form of government, paving the way for the development of Roman law and the establishment of a political system that would last for centuries. With their power to propose legislation and protect the rights of the people, the Tribunes played a vital role in shaping the political landscape of one of the most influential civilizations in history.
