The laws of Ancient Greece applied to __________.

Anna35 [415]

D. all people, regardless of status. As long as they are citizens of Greece.

Early Laws in Ancient Greece were not defined. For example, when one murders a person. The family of the murdered victim will then kill the murderer in revenge. This give rise to endless family feuds.

Around 620 BC, official laws were slowly being established. Draco, that lawgiver, wrote the first known written law in Ancient Greece. This law established exile as penalty for homicide. Instead of having the murderer be killed by the victim's family, the murderer will be sent away from Greece.

Other laws developed in Ancient Greece were the following:

1) Tort laws - where penalties differ based on the damage done in the performance of the crime. Most crimes involve monetary payment.
2) Family laws - laws that regulate the behavior of men and women concerning marriages, adoption, inheritances, and supporting roles as parents.
3) Public laws - dictate how public services will be provided and how public functions should be conducted
4) Procedural laws - guidelines that told judges how to use other laws or how it should be enforced
