I have a question about the Roman orator Cicero. What is the meaning of the phrase “amicitia senatus”?

That’s a Latin phrase meaning “friendship of the Senate”. It is used to describe the relationship between the Senate and the Roman people. The Senate was the upper house of the Roman government, and it was made up of the most powerful men in the Roman Republic. The Senate was responsible for making laws, and it was also responsible for appointing the Roman leaders.
