Question

In what way did the conflict between the patricians and the plebeians impact the government of the Roman Republic?

Answer 1

Shortly after the founding of the Republic, this conflict led to a secession from Rome by Plebeians to the Sacred Mount at a time of war. While this conflict would end in 287 BC with the Plebeians having acquired political equality with the Patricians, the plight of the average Plebeian had not changed.
