SPQR was something of a signature of the Roman Republic and later Roman empire. The acronym itself stands for the Latin Senatus Populusque Romanorum, meaning "the senate and people of Rome." Even in Rome today, mostly because of tradition, the phrase can be seen many places including on manhole covers.
