Write a letter to your senator (Roman) or your emperor explaining why plebeians should have a right to hold government office.

Respuesta :

Answer:  To the honorable senator (or emperor) of Rome,

I am writing to you as a humble citizen of the Roman Republic, a proud member of the plebeian order, and a loyal supporter of your authority. I have a request to make, which I hope you will consider with fairness and wisdom: to grant the plebeians the right to hold government office.

You may wonder why I am asking for such a privilege, which has been traditionally reserved for the patrician class. You may think that the plebeians are not qualified, not educated, not noble enough to participate in the administration of the state. You may fear that the plebeians will abuse their power, or undermine the stability and harmony of the republic. You may believe that the current system, which has been established by the ancestors and the gods, is the best and the only one for Rome.

But I urge you to reconsider these assumptions, and to look at the facts and the history of our great city. The plebeians are not a homogeneous group of ignorant and poor masses. They are a diverse and dynamic body of citizens, who contribute to the economy, the culture, and the defense of Rome. They include farmers, merchants, artisans, soldiers, and even some wealthy landowners. They have shown their courage, their patriotism, and their devotion to the republic on many occasions, such as the wars against the Etruscans, the Gauls, and the Carthaginians. They have also demonstrated their intelligence, their creativity, and their innovation in various fields, such as literature, art, law, and engineering.

The plebeians are not asking for more than their fair share of rights and duties. They are not seeking to overthrow the patrician class, or to disrupt the order and the tradition of Rome. They are simply requesting to have a voice and a representation in the government, to be able to elect and be elected to the offices of consul, praetor, censor, and senator. They are asking for the recognition of their merit and their dignity, which have been denied to them for too long.

The plebeians are not a threat, but an opportunity for Rome. By granting them the right to hold government office, you will not weaken, but strengthen the republic. You will not divide, but unite the people. You will not provoke, but prevent conflicts and rebellions. You will not offend, but please the gods, who favor justice and equality. You will not diminish, but enhance your own glory and reputation, as a wise and benevolent leader.

I hope you will heed my words, and act in the best interest of Rome and its citizens. I thank you for your attention, and I pray for your health and prosperity.

Your faithful servant,
