In 2004, Massachusetts became the first state in the U.S. to legalize same-sex marriage. This decision was made by the state's Supreme Judicial Court in the case of Goodridge v. Department of Public Health. Since then, same-sex marriage has been legal in Massachusetts, and the state has been a pioneer in LGBTQ rights.

Which of your basic rights comes from the twelve tables?

The Law of the Twelve Tables did not establish any rights.

The rights of the Roman citizens came from mos maiorum (the way of the elders); that is, ancestral customs.
