Keeping order in roman Britain was down to the ordinary citizens, as there was no policing around. For example the only forces of ‘keeping order’ were the Praetorians who were the Emperor’s personal guards. Apart from that the victims had to take the criminals to court and provide their own side of evidence.

On the other hand laws were officially introduced on the twelve tables, when there was a law for every kind of crime, from selling underweight bread to planning treasons. The laws proved to be harsh, as they deterred criminals, for example methods of executions and harsh physically punishments were sentences to those who revel, and any legionnaires that ran away from battles were given death penalty.
