M11 Revolution

I been through a lot this past times, but since I'm in Rome it's different in the ancient times. Unfair rights,laws, and unfair people. Me, AkeriaSoul is going on a mission for rights. I call this the revolution of the plebeians.

Today at midnight the group of plebeians and I are going to have a meeting with the republic about our laws. When we got there I was nervous. I was the leader of this group so of course I had to speak first.

"Hello I am AkeriaSoul and this is my group of plebeians" I said with a stumbled voice. "We demand to have equal rights even if you are poor, or rich we all should have equal laws", I said with a confident voice this time. "And what if we don't give you equal rights?" A man said looking at me sitting next to the emperor. "We will fight for it" I said while my group was screaming in anger. All the other poeple laughed it looked like some people even cried. "They think it's a joke", a woman said to me with her three children holding on to her. "What is so funny?" I asked in confusement. We don't want you to have equal laws, another man said with a angry face.

So we walked our of the building. Every one started to stomp in the ground. Right then I knew tommorow was going to be a harsh day. On the way home I saw whale blubber all packed in box's at the ship dock. I always wondered what they did with it. Anyway it was the next day and I started to get prepared for the fight.
Two hours later..........

What a fight we had. I don't want to even talk about it. Some of my best friends died just for equal rights. Don't feel bad, she wanted to die for the laws to be equal for all Roman citizens.

The tribune started to speak for the plebeians to the Senate and the Consuls. The plebeians had gained some inportant rights in 287 b.c.e. The plebeians gained the right to pass laws for Roman citizens. Now all Roman citizens could approve the laws.
