you have the privilege of learning about the greatest civilisation in the ancient world!
think about what a republic is and who it is lead by and then think about what an empire is and who runs it
a republic is owned by the people for the people
emperors rule empires
consuls were annually elected chief magistrates (there were two of them) who jointly 'ruled' the republic.
so we know it cannot be C or D
patrician families in ancient rome were the aristocrats or noblemen
plebeians (plebs) were the mob, the commoners; the populace
Whilst patricians with their money could hold sway over some decisions in the republic they didnt own it, not officially at least
And so the only answer is A
The roman people were represented by elected senators during the reign of the republic
when imperialism occurred rome was ruled by a long secession of emperors (most of which didnt last very long)
