| | Wikinfo First Triumvirate |
 | | Unlike the somewhat less famous "Second Triumvirate", the First Triumvirate had no official status whatever -- its overwhelming power in the Roman state was strictly unofficial influence --, and was in fact kept secret for some time as part of the political machinations of the Triumviri themselves. | | | Crassus and Pompey had been colleagues in the consulate for 70 BC, when they had legislated the full restoration of the tribunate of the people (the dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla had stripped the office of all its powers except the ius auxiliandi, the right to rescue a plebeian from the clutches of a patrician magistrate). | | | He promptly brought the law before the Council of the People in a speech which found him flanked by Crassus and Pompey, thus revealing the alliance. |
