A
have a president
B
are divided into different branches
C
guarantee everyone freedom of speech
D
guarantee equal rights to all
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Much like the modern U.S. government, most of the government of ancient Rome can be divided into three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. There are, however, some differences in function, and the Roman government had at least one important component (the Senate) which does not fit this scheme well.

Detailed explanation-2: -Rome and the United States both used the three branches of government, which are the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches. All the citizens in Rome had to abide by rights and laws made by the branches of government just like the citizens of the United States.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Senate was the most powerful branch of the Roman republic, and senators held the position for life. The executive branch was made up of two consuls, elected yearly. These two consuls had almost kingly powers, and each could veto, or disapprove of the other’s decision.
