  7. Assemblies and Tribunes These protected the common people and made up of both plebeians and patricians The assemblies’ primary job was to elect the magistrates The tribunes had the ability to veto (forbid) actions by other officials

  8. Civic Duty The success of the government depended upon people’s participation Elections were complicated Officials were respected and admired for their service

  10. Written Laws Keep Order At first, laws weren’t written down Only the patricians knew them The plebeians didn’t like this Rome’s first written law code was produced in 450 BC on 12 bronze tables These were displayed in the Forum
