    Description

    L.C. Piso Frugi AR Denarius Roman Rupblic NGC VF.
    The
    Social War
    (from
    Latin
    bellum sociale, properly 'war of the allies'), also called the
    Italian
    or
    Marsic War
    , was fought from 91 to 87 BC between the
    Roman Republic
    and several of its autonomous allies (
    socii
    ) in
    Italy
    . The Italian allies wanted
    Roman citizenship
    , not only for the status and influence that came with it, but also for the right to vote in Roman elections and laws.
    [5]
    They believed that they should be treated equally to the Romans, given that they had formed cultural and linguistic connections with the Roman civilization and had been their loyal allies for over two centuries. The Romans strongly opposed their demands, and refused to grant them citizenship, thus leaving the Italian groups with fewer rights and privileges.
