The medieval Catalan political tradition was heir to the notion of "Princeps" (P
rince) that in times of transition from classical Roman Republic by the time of
the Principality, was used as opposed to the notion of "Rex" (King) reflecting a
(very intense transition between the Roman Republic and the Principad) where "P
rnceps" "the first citizen" was the head of the Empire, having awarded key positi
ons and functions of the Republic inherited political debate of great significan
ce, the sovereignty in theoretical but practical terms resided in the representa
tive bodies considered citizens (Senate, in Rome) and, conversely, the "Rex", wh
ich, in monarchical systems of government (such as the time of the kings in Rome
and kingdoms in medieval times) possessed sovereignty personal capacity. Suppor
ters of the Republic accepted a "Princeps" (subject to Senate) but not a King (a
bsolute power). In ancient Rome, the Empire succeeded the Republic and Cesar Aug
usto, chosen as "Princeps", maintained the republican constitution until the yea
r 23 BC where the tribune power and the "Imperium" (control) were coated with th
e absolute, own sole power of kings.

rse.
