There is literally no difference.

>>2807919
You immediately enter the senate once elected tribune of the plebs.

>>2807686
wrong. he was tribune of the pleb, but still patrician

Sertorius is the patrician's choice

>>2808222
Historical illiterate detected.

>>2808230
>popularis
>patrician choice
What the fuck am I reading

>>2808222
No, only plebs could've been elected to the tribunate, this is why Clodius had had to be adopted into a plebeian family to be elected in 59BC.

>>2807946
my favourite is cicero too, but i already had the caesar bust saved and couldnt be bothered to download another

Caesar

actually liked Caesar before he went a conquerin'

Camillus

>what should we choose the well fortified, wealthier, and vacant area or the devastated ruins of Rome
>Rome because Rome is worth it!

pretty much what the Golden age had that later periods of Rome didn't

Catiline is my favorite. Ciceros meme conspiracy ruined everything.

>>2808600
other than the Cicero meme what other things is he known for?

>>2806448
Clodius isn't a senator

great Roman though

>>2806348
Cato the Younger because fuck you "Carthago delenda est."

>>2808624
Catiline was literally another Caesar in the making. Popularis, capable, huge debts. And he went out like a hero in his last stand.

Octavian because fuck the republic.

>>2808644
Ehhh, Catilina was apparently more of a villain, at least towards other Romans. Benefited enormously from the proscriptions, and killed his own (ex?) brother-in-law for more dough.

Still better than the literally who fuck from Picenum who started calling himself savior of the fucking country.

>>2807686
How about you stop driving the farms of the people who fought for you out of business, you fucking proto-yuppie

Trajan here, just wanted to say fuck you all.

>>2808809
Hadrian here, please stop

Unrelated question, but why does English remove -us ending from Roman names?

>>2808824
Because Roman names declined like other nouns in latin. Most names that end in -us are second declension, which, depending on their use in a sentence, could look like any of the following forms:

Traianus
Traiani
Traiano
Traianum
Traianō

The only common "root" is Traian, or, Trajan, and that's how we refer to him.

get out

>>2808633
he was in the senate

>>2808941
Cool, didn't know that. It's just weird because in my language the Roman name (Like Trajan) is accompanied with the -us present.
