Two law making social classes were the Patricians and the Plebeians. The Patricians were the upper class and the Senate and the Plebeians were the middle class and the Assembly. They never got along when it came to making laws. Roman government officials held office for one year. The Romans had the Twelve Tables; they were stone tablets with laws on them.
