Solon
The Athenian ruler known for his popular reforms around 594 BCE was Solon. He implemented significant changes aimed at alleviating debt and improving the rights of the lower classes, such as the abolition of debt slavery and the establishment of a more inclusive political system. His reforms laid the groundwork for the development of Athenian democracy and earned him widespread support among the common people.

Solon was popular among some Athenian farmers because he implemented debt relief measures, including the cancellation of debts and the abolition of debt slavery, which provided immediate financial relief to struggling farmers. However, he was unpopular among others, particularly the wealthy landowners, because his reforms threatened their economic interests and reduced their control over indebted farmers. Additionally, some farmers felt that Solon's reforms did not go far enough in addressing their grievances or redistributing land. This mixed reception reflected the diverse interests within Athenian society during his reforms.
