Cato was born of plebeian stock and fought as a military tribune in the Second Punic War. His oratorical and legal skills and his rigid morality attracted the notice of the patrician Lucius Valerius Flaccus, who helped him begin a political career at Rome.
Crime, especially violent crime, increased during the Punic wars as the lower class population, forced from their small farms by the large farm owners, swelled the population there. Slaves were brought to Rome as a consequence of the wars as well, creating mass unemployment amongst the people.
