Not all patricians were opposed to this. The conservative patricians opposed it. The liberal patricians supported it. This support helped the rich plebeians to eventually gain access to all offices of state and the priesthoods, which had been exclusively patrician.
During the early republic, the patricians established themselves as a ruling class through a monopoly over the consulship and the senate. They were an aristocracy and considered themselves superior to the plebeians (commoners). They saw being in power as a privilege by birth right. Moreover, the plebeian movement started as a rebellion against the patrician-dominated state when their demands for addressing the worse aspect through which the patricians exploited poor plebeians were rejected. The patricians saw the plebeian economic grievances and demands as a threat to their profits, exploitative practices, and privilege. They also saw the rebellion as an attempt to subvert the Romans state. Eventually, with the help of the liberal patricians the rich plebeians, who were the leaders of the constantly agitating plebeian movement, were co-opted into what became a patrician-plebeian oligarchy and the rich plebeians turned their backs on the poor plebeians who had been the driving force of the plebeian movement.
Throughout the history of the Roman Empire, tensions existed between the patrician-citizens (wealthy Romans) and the plebeian-citizens (non-wealthy Romans). The primary reason for the general patrician effort to hold the most important governing positions was the view that plebeians were simply unable to rule well: they did not, thought many patricians, possess the necessary character nor other resources necessary to make sound ruling decisions.
The patricians were afraid because most of the population of Rome was plebeians and when the plebeians marched out of the city to camp at the end of the hill until the farms came to a halt. Without the plebeians, patricians feared that the army would be helpless if an enemy struck at Rome. The patricians had little choice but to compromise.
One reason could be that they were at opposite ends of the social Ladder, Patricians were the wealthiest among Rome, able to afford Roman Baths and Theatre, where as Plebeians were the lowest, literally poor and working class, constructing everyday buildings and objects for pittance hence maybe the friction between the two social classes?
The patricians and plebeians were not in continual conflict. At the beginning of the city, yes, the patricians had all the land, authority, and legislative power. After the Conflict of the Orders, which produced the laws of the Twelve Tables, the Plebeians gained their rights and relative harmony prevailed. However when Rome expanded and other people came to live in the city, the patricians and plebeians became the aristocracy because they could trace their ancestry back to the founding of the city.
The plebians revolted until a tribune was created in which they could elect their own representatives.The Struggle of the Orders was a fight for political equality with the Patricians. While Rome was a war, all of the Plebeians left the city in secession and created the office of the Plebeian Tribune. This was the first real power the Plebeians had ever had. They wanted full power in the Senate, but a small group of Patricio-Plebeian aristocrats continued to hold the means to control the Plebeian council. Since this aristocracy was based on societal structure it needed to be overthrown by revolution. This was done when Caesar crossed the Rubicon and began a civil war that changed the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.After a couple of secessions (that is they withdrew from the city, and refused to fight) they progressively gained some concessions in office-holding and Senate membership from the Patricians who controlled the magistracies, priesthoods and law courts. They then hit on the idea of a Plebeian Assembly from which the Patricians were excluded. Here they produced laws, and elected Tribunes of the Plebs, who had immunity, could introduce and veto laws in the Senate, and became senators (which each year further diluted the Patrician proportion in the Senate).

Your question cannot be answered because you are asking about two different things. A republic is a type of government. An empire is any vast holding, in Rome's case, territories. The two are different and one can't morph into the other.Your question cannot be answered because you are asking about two different things. A republic is a type of government.

The Roman senate was a body of ex-magistrates that could be called into session by a magistrate with imperium and was representative of the collective opinion of the office-holding class. The senate had powers of deliberation and advisement and lots of influence, but the leaders did not have to do what they said.
Perhaps the most important influennce that Roman Empire had on Christianity was its unity. Prior to the fourth century, the Christian Church was quite fragmented, with different factions holding different beliefs on important issues. Martin Palmer (The Jesus Sutras) says that the ideal of One Church is a historical invention of the fourth and fifth centuries, after the Western Church had become the faith of the Roman Empire.Emperor Constantine saw the Church as a potential unifying force in the Empire, but knew that the Church could not unify the Empire unless it was, itself, united. He set out to impose order, creating a stable hierarchy under his leadership, and obtained consensus on important issues facing the Church. His support made membership of the Christian Church socially and politically desirable for some, thus leading to the surge in Church membership that enabled Christianity to become the state religion later in the fourth century.

During this time period, the plebeians in Ancient Rome did not have equal political rights as the patricians. They were excluded from holding key positions in government, such as the consulship and high priesthoods. Additionally, they did not have access to legal protection or representation in the early Republic.
They did not want them to hold any power because they were a class lower than them and they were not as wealthy. And if they did have more power than them they would change the laws to make them have just as many rights as them but what are they...................they were the senate.
Roman citizens who could vote but couldn't hold office were known as plebeians. They were mostly commoners who did not belong to the elite patrician class. While they had the right to vote and participate in the political process, they were typically excluded from holding high-ranking governmental positions.
The plebians revolted until a tribune was created in which they could elect their own representatives.The Struggle of the Orders was a fight for political equality with the Patricians. While Rome was a war, all of the Plebeians left the city in secession and created the office of the Plebeian Tribune. This was the first real power the Plebeians had ever had. They wanted full power in the Senate, but a small group of Patricio-Plebeian aristocrats continued to hold the means to control the Plebeian council.

They then hit on the idea of a Plebeian Assembly from which the Patricians were excluded. Here they produced laws, and elected Tribunes of the Plebs, who had immunity, could introduce and veto laws in the Senate, and became senators (which each year further diluted the Patrician proportion in the Senate).
