Description:
S.P.Q.R. stands for "Senatus Populusque Romanus" — the Senate and People of Rome; the suffix "que", meaning "and", being capitalized in the acronym. Thus "SPQR" denotes the entire legal power and authority of the Roman Empire, the Emperor himself presiding over the Senate. (Linguistic info from novaroma.org)
