Well, as the civilization becomes larger, more people are coming in. So they need to expand the laws and complicate them to keep the civilization safe. In a manner of speaking the question answers itself, and here's why. Laws are part of a given civilization. Thus as the civilization becomes more complex, laws, as part of the civilization follow the same path. A simple civilization, and history will bear this out, does not have complex laws. There is also the tendency of civilizations to create a complex legal system that requires more lawyers. A size able portion of any civilizations law makers are lawyers. Thus, to ( not on purpose ) have a legal system handle complex issues, requires more lawyers who in turn create more laws. The other aspect of this recently in the USA was Presidents Clinton & Obama are both attorneys. This creates a double impact as now the legislature ( filled with lawyers) is part of the executive branch headed by another lawyer.
