Tag: Senate
Council of 600 members (for the first century 300, during Caesar 900).

That was also because the term of office of consuls and other magistrates was only one year. The Senate was the constant factor in Roman politics. That only changed in the course of the first century BC, when the army captains became increasingly important.
