Legal Theory & Practice

"I am your lawful ruler. Therefore, the lands you lay claim to are mine, by right."

Administrative and economic reform was difficult in the early days of the Sassanid empire, as the powerful noble dynasties, vying for personal power, created too much pressure to allow stable long-term reforms to take place and causing the economy to stagnate. The revolt of Mazdak, however, shattered the socio-economic system and entirely crushed the power of the nobility. Seizing the chance, the Shahanshah immediately put down the rebellion and took control, now free of the nobles’ stranglehold. He implemented sweeping reforms, creating a system of administrative districts and laws, and systemised taxes and imposts in the way the House of Sassan had envisioned. Over time, other eastern kingdoms took their lead from the Persian example, reducing the risk of insurrection by adding checks and balances to their internal systems, chiefly through the appointment of government officials whose job it was to ensure the king’s wishes were carried out to the letter.
