During the Roman Republic the members of the popular assemblies were members for life. These assemblies were based on direct democracy. This means that instead of electing representatives to vote on bills, the people themselves voted on them. Initially they were voted on by the Assembly of the Soldiers and later by the Plebeian Council. The Assembly of the Soldiers elected the senior officers of state, the Assembly of the Tribes elected the junior officers of state and the Plebeian council elected the plebeian tribunes. All soldiers were members of the Assembly of the Soldiers. All Roman citizens were members of the Assembly of the Tribes. All plebeians (commoners) were members of the Plebeian Council. During the period of rule by emperors which followed the Republic the Assembly of the Soldiers and the Plebeian council were abolished.
