Roma became a Latin republic who was governed by two consuls elected by the senate. The only people allowed to be consuls were the Patricians (upper class). The two consuls were governed by each other, and their mandate lasted only one year. At the end of their government, the consuls had to report to the Senate on their functions. The assembly and magistrates were established and each one of them had different duties. The written law code was established and it concerned such matters as legal procedure, property rights.
