List three ways the Roman Republic was different from a monarchy ruled by a single king. Use what you learned about the structure of the Roman government earlier in the lesson.

Actual pasted answer off of Edmentum!!!

Explanation:

1. A king is not elected. He gets his power by birth or by his control over the military. The Roman Republic had assemblies to elect its leaders.

2. A king has absolute power. He makes laws and decisions that no one can question. In the Roman Republic, no one had such power. The consuls’ power was limited by their one-year terms. Each consul could overrule the other.

3. In a kingdom, there is no limiting the king’s power. If the king is cruel, he can treat his subjects badly. In the Roman Republic, there were laws to protect the rights of citizens. The tribunes could reject unfair decisions by the patricians.
