im a loser and Rome was never a Democracy, it was a Republic controlled primarily by the Nobles in the early stage and later by both the plebians (average poorer citizens) and by the Patricians (Roman Nobles). The senate was only for Roman nobles and the concilium plebis was to establish laws by the general populace. The change from Roman Republic to Roman Empire can be traced to 27 B.C. when octavian (Augustus Caesar First Emperor of Rome) "returned" power to the senate after the civil war, but in fact gave the senate little to no power and he was the shadow leader under what was then called the principate.

The limited democracy in Rome became increasingly intermittent through the 1st Century BCE when civil wars disrupted the normal government and electoral processes. The First Triumvirate from 60 BCE was a deal cut between Caesar, Pompey and Crassus to restore control. Then Caesar had himself elected dictator for life (instead of the traditional six months to solve emergencies). Further deals between Octavian (Augustus), Mark Antony and Lepidus from 43 BCE established authoritarian rule to maintain peace, and this was cut back to single rule by Augustus in 27 BCE to end the strife caused by ambitious generals chasing power under cover of claiming to want democracy.

The end of the ancient Roman republic for all practical purposes began ending in 30 BC BCE with the establishment of the Princeps of Augustus Caesar. How it ended was based on the support of the legions loyal to Octavian, titled Augustus by the Senate.

By defeating the enemies of Julius Caesar and then winning the civil war against Mark Antony, Octavian established the Princeps that for all practical purposes ended the republic and started the "emperor" system that was to continue until 476 AD CE in the western empire.

It began when, after the replacement of the monarchy by an aristocratic patrician oligarchy at the turn of the 4th Century BCE, the plebeians - rich and poor - revolted and deserted the city until the regime came to terms - establishing a centuriate assembly for military decisions and a tribal assembly for general matters. And one of the two consuls each year had to be plebeian, and moved on to the senate, progressively diluting its patrician dominance.
