The Comitia Curiata, was for a time the sole legal representative of the entire Roman populus. The Comitia Curiata dated from the time of the Roman kings. By late Republican times its importance had dwindled, and its chief functions were simply to confer the imperium on magistrates..." Source 1. Google Source 2.

The Comitia Centuriata "instituted in about 450 bc as a military assembly, decided issues of war and peace, enacted legislation, elected consuls, praetors, and censors, and considered the appeals of Roman citizens convicted of capital crimes. While Centuries in the Roman army always consisted of about one hundred soldiers, Centuries in the Centuriate Assembly usually did not. This was because the property qualifications for membership in a voting century did not change over time, as property qualifications for membership in a military century did."

The Concilium Plebis "is the principal popular assembly of the Roman Republic. As the name suggests, the Plebeian Council was organized as a Council, and not as an Assembly. It functions as a gathering through which the Plebeians can pass laws, elect magistrates, and try judicial cases. The Concilium Plebis was the principal assembly of the common people of the ancient Roman Republic. It functioned as a legislative/judicial assembly, through which the plebeians could pass legislation."

In all the assemblies, votes were counted by units, centuries, or tribes rather than by individuals; thus, insofar as a majority prevailed in voting, it would have been a majority of units, not of citizens. Although they collectively represented all Roman citizens, the assemblies were not sovereign. Throughout the entire period of the republic, the Senate—an institution inherited from the earlier era of the Roman monarchy—continued to exercise great power. Source Britannica.com]]> 2021-08-27 03:28:41 UTC https://padlet.com/3577321/cbf0l0i2hq6znf2j/wish/1699990658
