As senior Archon, Solon chose to proceed quietly to administer so as to
Not disturb or overset the state
Because if he did he would not have sufficient power to re-constitute and organize again. To rule properly, Solon thought it best to “Combine force and justice together”.
So he started changing Laws. What laws? Nearly all of them.
Solon cancelled all debts and obligations in Athens. He repealed the dreaded Draconian criminal code and substituted his own. Then he wrote a new constitution. Those born of free Attican parents would become citizens of Athens.
