Roman assemblies

The Roman Republic (Latin: Res Publica Romanorum) vested formal governmental powers in four separate people's assemblies — the Comitia Curiata, the Comitia Centuriata, the Comitia Tributa, and the Concilium Plebis. The Latin Comitia is sometimes rendered in English as Comices.

Curiate Assembly

The Comitia Curiata were the oldest Roman assembly after the "Comitia Calata", represented the original three Roman tribes, organized in 30 "curiae", voting units that each casted one collective vote. This organ originally elected all higher magistrates but later only confirmed and inaugurated those elected by the Centuriate Assembly.
