my paragraph about Roman government

In Roman Government under influence of Etruscans and the Greeks, the Romans acquired the skills to build their unique political institutions. First city- state was ruled by powerful kings, including actual Etruscan conquerors. The king was chosen buy a council of old men called the senate. He chose from the Patricians When the king died the Senate and Patricians dominated the city-state. Roman Republic underwent a long turbulent development under the influence of  social struggles between aristocrats and  commoners. Plebeians were the people who were like the people who didn't want to belong to a patrician family. Including the farmers, workers, and some wealthy citizens. In time of emergencies the consuls, on advise of the senate could appoint a dictator. The Republic developed a government system that both maintained the leadership of the Senate yet also admitted the plebeians to power.
The roman "mixed" government on account of its combination of oligarchic and democratic features was admired. Romans practiced to support of clients. They were normally less wealthy citizens, protected and paid by rich patron in return for personal services.
responsibility for maintaining the "peace of the gods" Rome`s good relationship with these and many other deities belonged to the pontiffs.
