What was NOT a focus of Solon's reforms?

  • Naval expansion

  • Economic relief

  • Legal justice

  • Political restructuring

Answer

Naval expansion was not a focus of Solon's reforms. Solon's reforms primarily aimed to address social and economic inequalities in Athens. He introduced measures such as the seisachtheia (debt relief), the establishment of a new legal code, and the creation of a new political system based on property qualifications. These reforms were intended to promote stability and justice within Athenian society, rather than to enhance its military capabilities.
