Similarities Between The USAd The Roman Republic

The U.S. may have adopted many parts of the Roman government and further added to it, but people have yet to notice all of the similarities and the differences between the two. The U.S. and the Roman government have some similarities like they both have a tripartite government but there are some major differences like women being a part of the government and the number of executives ruling. One similarity is that they are tripartite. For example,“The U.S. and the Roman Republic also have a three based government, it is known as a tripartite system.”(IPL).
