Question 11 • Social Studies 8 - LIU Summer

What was one aspect of the rule of law in Roman society?

Answer
A
It protected all classes equally in Rome.
B
It protected only the plebeian class in Rome.
C
It protected only the enslaved people in Rome.
D
It protected mainly patricians and enslaved people.

Explanation

The rule of law means that laws apply to people and are meant to protect them under a shared legal system. In Roman society, this ideal was that all classes were protected equally, rather than laws protecting only plebeians, enslaved people, or mainly patricians and enslaved people. Therefore, the correct choice is “It protected all classes equally in Rome.”
