Suggestions
Hi, ESKEHL, I have a few suggestions, which follow.


 * Rename curulus aediles to curule aediles per the common name in English. Note also that plebeian aediles and curule aediles were elected in alternate years.
 * The senate is not a legislature, as implied by its "legislative branch" designation, during the republic.
 * The centuriae are only figuratively soldiers. During the middle and late republic they were just citizens. The proper descriptor is not aristocratic but rather "timocratic".
 * Please correct the typo BRANSCH to "branch".
 * The role of the plebeian tribunes in the late republic was somewhat all-purpose; it included legislative initiative and the ability to veto other magistrates. Add an arrow for that on the right.
 * By the classical republic the fight (if there ever was one) between patricians and plebeians was irrelevant. The tribunes were elected from and largely acted consistent with the nobiles and their internal shifting alliances etc.
 * Veto powers were also given for senior magistrates over lower ones. Eg consuls could veto praetorian actions (most especially in the watching for auspices).

 * As long as you're correcting typos, note too that comitia is twice misspelled as comita, and centuriata is three times misspelled as centuria. As for the aediles, the adjective is curulis (not curulus) in the singular and curules in the plural. So you have two choices here: aediles curules (Latin) or, as Ifly6 suggests, curule aediles (English). The latter is a better choice, since you use the English adjective pleb(e)ian for the aediles plebis. Cheers, Choliamb (talk) 04:11, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
