Twelve Tables Of Rome
The twelve tables of Rome had an impact on the plebeians because the laws said that they could elect their leaders and the laws applied to everyone including the poor.

The reason why Rome changed from a monarchy to a republic is because after 200 years of reign under harsh kings, the people of Rome wanted more part in the government. For the republic to make sure that none of the branches were gaining to much power they had Checks-and-Balances or each of the government branches make sure that none of the other branches make important decisions without telling the other branches first. They also keep the government branches fair and have equal power.
