Question

Which positions made up early Roman government? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

The early Roman government consisted of the Senate, Consuls, and, as needed, a Dictator.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the early Roman government, the positions that made up the government were:

• Senate: A council of elders who advised the consuls.
• Consuls: Two elected executives who oversaw the laws and ensured their enforcement.
• Dictator: A position added as needed in extraordinary circumstances for a specific task, such as leading the army in a crisis.

Originally, these positions were exclusively held by patrician families, but later opened to plebians, including small farmers and merchants.
