| | There are two stories involved in the nearly five hundred years of the Roman Republic's existence: (1) the growth of Rome from a village to the capital of the known world, (2) and the struggle of the plebians, for a greater share in running the state. | | | Since previous reforms had blurred the differences between patricians and plebians, two political parties arose: the optimates, or conservatives, and populares, or liberals. | | | There were laws against plebians selling their land to pay debts, so they had to offer their own persons as collateral; if they defaulted on payments, the creditor could sell them into slavery or even put them to death. |
