He replaced the prevailing system of oral law and blood feud by a written code to be enforced only by a court. Known for its harshness, draconian has come to refer to similarly unforgiving rules or laws.
Draconian laws coming to the US? |

the laws weren't just harsh and unforgiving, most of them called for execution for the stupidest little things. steal some bread? execute! cheat someone out of 10 drachmas? execute! let your cow get loose? execute! that is how when the laws call for the severest penalties for the stupidest little things, they are said to be Draconian. |
