Best Answer

Solon faced the daunting task of improving the condition of debt-ridden farmers, laborers forced into bondage over debt, and the middle classes who were excluded from government. Solon had to help them while simultaneously avoiding alienating the increasingly wealthy landowners and aristocracy. Solon's solutions were, of necessity, compromises. Because of these reform compromises and other legislation, posterity refers to him as Solon the lawgiver.
