Roman Republic

Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus

163 BC
Roman Republic (Present-Day Rome, Italy)

Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus was a Popularis Roman politician best known for his agrarian reform law entailing the transfer of land from the Roman state and wealthy landowners to poorer citizens. Against stiff opposition in the aristocratic Senate, this legislation was carried through during his term as tribune of the plebs in 133 BC.
