The Patricians were the more elite families of ancient Rome just like modern day upper class. The Plebeians were the workers or the middle classes of today. These helped keep Rome functioning because you need more then one type of person in your civilization (just like an ecosystem). This helped Rome become so great and powerful because of their great economy from different types of workers.
