PLEASE HELP NOW! How did Cincinnatus and the Roman people demonstrate citizenship? List some examples from “The Story of Cincinnatus.”

Answer 1

The core of the tradition holds that in 458 Cincinnatus was appointed dictator of Rome in order to rescue a consular army that was surrounded by the Aequi on Mount Algidus. At the time of his appointment he was working a small farm. He is said to have defeated the enemy in a single day and celebrated a triumph in Rome.
