Solon
One significant reform not attributed to Solon of Athens was the establishment of a democratic system that allowed all male citizens to participate directly in governance. While Solon introduced measures such as the Boule (Council of 400) and reformed the legal system, the full development of democracy in Athens, characterized by broader citizen participation, occurred later under Cleisthenes. Additionally, Solon did not abolish slavery, which remained a part of Athenian society during his reforms.
The city of Athens was experiencing a period of rest when they appointed Solon to create a new constitution for them. Solon created what is known as the Solonian constitution, which brought reform to Athens.
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.
the fruit cake reform!
Solon was the first Athenian reform leader who established the Citizen's Assembly and implemented laws forbidding enslavement for debts and ensuring that fathers taught their sons a trade. His reforms were aimed at reducing social and economic inequalities in ancient Athens.
