Lex Plautia Papiria

The lex Plautia Papiria de civitate sociis danda was a Roman plebiscite enacted amidst the Social War in 89 BCE. It was proposed by the plebeian tribunes Marcus Plautius Silvanus and Gaius Papirius Carbo. The law further extended Roman citizenship to Italian communities – expanding the previous lex Julia de civitate – that had previously rebelled against Rome during this war.
