The '''patricians''' were the highest class of citizens in early [[Rome]], composed of wealthy landowners. Although the patricians were only 10% of society, they held all the power with their three hundred member [[Roman Senate]]. Eventually, in the later Empire the [[plebian]] lower class gained equality with the upper class and "Patrician" became a name for any court official.
