Today in western cov we contined the power point on ancient greece. We talked about laws and reforms and also talked about some different tyrants and leaders of ancient greece and what happened to them. One of the reforms was the Draco. This sated that all athinean people por or rich were equal, death was the punishment for most crimes in athens, if you owed someone money and you didnt have it you would have to be their slave until you could repay your debt. A tyrant was Hippias. He ruled from 527-510 BCE and his brother was murdered by an unknown person in Athens.  this lead to him having all of the suspects and there familys murdered but on the down low. He was eventually expelled from Athens.
