Struggle of ancient Rome.

The struggle of orders was between the Patricians and the Plebeians. This struggle was between the poor and the rich. The main areas of conflict were political, economical, social and religious. This struggle of orders happened in the early 5th century. The Plebeians fought for the rights that the Patricians had. The Plebeians were angry and left the city. This hurt Rome and they were told to come back and received many more rights. This was influential for later Roman politics because the development helped transform the senate from just the Patricians to the Patricians and Plebeians. The Plebeians and the Patricians together formed a government that helped all the people and did not favor just the rich. This topic is a situation of rich vs. poor which was a problem in Ancient Rome.
