Senate. Carthage, even under its earliest form of monarchy, had a senate composed of influential citizens. These members were known as drm or the 'great ones' and held the position for life.

In historiographical terms, ancient Carthage (/ˈkɑːrθɪdʒ/) was a Phoenician civilization during classical antiquity, beginning from the founding of Carthage in modern Tunisia in the ninth century BC, to its destruction in 146 BC.[4][5][6] At its height in the fourth century BC, the city-state grew to become the largest metropolis in the world,[7] and the center of the Carthaginian Empire, a major power in the ancient world that dominated the western Mediterranean.
