Description
Looking for a way for students to better understand the Roman Republic? This resource provides an overview of the Roman Republic that focuses not just on the powers of each branch of government, but also the interests behind each branch. Students will learn about how the consuls represented a monarchy, the Senate an aristocracy, and the Assembly a democracy. In addition, there are three primary source documents; two involve the workings and benefits of the republic and the third on why the republic fell. It's a great way to cover an important topic and discuss how different factions competing for power affect government and history.
