Answered by maham237 @
In the Roman Republic,
farmers, merchants and artisans eventually gained the power to elect tribunes
who represented them in government and could veto the actions of consuls and
other leaders, protecting the interests of the common people (the
"plebeians") whom they represented.
"Tribunis Plebis" was
the Latin term for "Tribune of the people" (the plebs). "Concilium
Plebis" was the Latin name for the Plebeian Council or assembly. There had
been assemblies of the plebeians before plebeian unrest that reached a crisis
stage in 494 BC. But after that date, plebeian assembly's actions, under the
authority of the tribune of the people, carried more official authority.
The creation of the office of tribune, to represent the people and offset the
power of the consul, occurred after major conflict between the plebeians and
the ruling class (the patricians) in 495-494 BC.
