There are three main groups of the Roman republic. They are patricians, plebeians, and slaves. The patricians are the highest and wealthiest of the social classes. Most patricians are aristocrats. These people make up the senate within the legislative branch of their government. The eldest male in the household, runs the household within the patrician's class. The women also have some freedom, they were able to own their own land. The other wealthy social class is the plebeians. The plebeians are made up of the middle class or the working class and they make up the majority of the population. These people do not participate in the government. But over time this social class rebels and eventually participates within the government.

The lowest class is the slaves. These people had no rights or freedom within Rome. Most slaves were captured in battle and sent to Rome to be sold. Most wealthy people buy the slaves. When a slave is bought, they are that person’s slave for life. A wealthy man normally owns around 500 slaves, while the kind might own around 20,000 slaves.
