The Romans grew to think that all individuals, regardless of wealth or poverty, should be treated equally under the law. They accepted certain justice principles. The following were a few of the most significant rules of Roman law:

- All persons had the right to equal treatment under the law.
- A person was considered innocent until proven guilty.
- The burden of proof rested with the accuser rather than the accused. A person should
be punished only for actions, not thoughts.
- Any law that seemed unreasonable or grossly unfair could be set aside.

How much do you think that these laws are reasonable and equitable? What impact has Roman law had on the contemporary world?
Which of the aforementioned laws, if you were a member of one of the Roman government's legislative bodies, might you have changed? Describe and expand.
