The first code of law for Rome was called the Twelve Tables, and was written about 450 B.C. As the empire grew the law expanded, was rewritten to reflect the newer customs and the Stoic teachings, and took on a note of clarity and universality that would set a standard for the empire, its subjects, and the world of the future.
