Question

Why did Justinian I want to reform the law of the Byzantine Empire?

Answer 1

Answer:

A) The code needed to be collected and reorganized

Explanation:

Also known as Justinian the Great, Justinian I led the reconstruction of the Roman Empire under his reign as emperor from 527-565 AD. Through the usefulness of very capable generals, Justinian I was able to reconquer much of the western Mediterranean which was previously overtaken by the earlier Germanic invaders of Rome. There needed to be a reform in the law of the new empire as it did not reflect the transparency and standards of the Byzantine Empire and so taxes were imposed for these significant reform measures.
