The democratic principle reflected in this text is civic duty. This is evident in the description of the citizen's role in discussing political issues and voting, as well as the soldier's willingness to lay down his life for the Republic, both of which emphasize the responsibilities of citizens in a democratic society.
The Roman Citizen
by Emma Humphries
The Roman ideal was the citizen/soldier/farmer. The citizen was a
rational man who discussed political issues and voted. The farmer
was a hardworking and practical man who worked the land with his
hands. The soldier was a courageous, strong man who obeyed orders
and was willing to lay down his life in the name of the Republic.
