What was Dracos code?

Draco's Code, also known as the Draco Code or the Code of Draco, refers to a set of laws attributed to the ancient Athenian legislator Draco, enacted in the 7th century BCE. These laws are famously known for their harshness and severity, leading to the term "draconian" to describe excessively harsh legal measures. While the specifics of the laws are mostly lost to history, they aimed to provide a written legal framework for Athenian society, replacing oral traditions. Draco's Code is often noted for its emphasis on punishment, with even minor offenses facing severe penalties.
