Question

What happened to the relationship between Patricians and Plebeians during Pax

Romana?
a.) They existed side by side
b.) They fought for more rights for their own group
c.) They began to live in different parts of Rome
d.) They ceased to exist in society

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

After the expulsion of the kings, Rome was ruled by its aristocrats (roughly, the patricians) who abused their privileges. This led to a struggle between the people (plebeians) and the aristocrats that is called the Conflict of the Orders. The term "orders" refers to the patrician and plebeian groups of Roman citizens.

Plebeians were the lower-class, often farmers, in Rome who mostly worked the land owned by the Patricians. ... In 450 BC, plebeians were barred from marrying patricians, but this law was repealed in 445 BC by a Tribune of the Plebs.
