Examples

“The real effect of these two changes was not only to alter the constitutional character of the consulship, but to abolish the promagisterial character of the proconsulship, to make it in fact a distinct magistracy, with distinct duties, always provincial of its own, a definite mode of appointment and a fixed duration.”

“The purpose must have been to provide elected magistrates to govern the two additional provinces acquired in Spain; but the converse of this was that it removed the need to confer promagisterial powers on private individuals, a practice which now ceased.”

“He stayed outside the pomerium, to retain his promagisterial powers: either in expectation of a triumph or to retain his independent command authority in the coming civil war.”
