2. It was the first written law code in the Mediterranean world.

3. It covered both Roman citizens and foreigners as a kind of universal law.

4. It limited the rights of patricians and elevated plebeians.

Explanation:

The plebeians were not satisfied with their status in the time of the kings, as in the first part of the republic, although they were granted the status of Roman citizens by the reform of Servius Tullius. This reform did not change their position much, as they remained inaccessible in public administration, including priestly functions. As a result of the plebeians' struggle for better status, new act - 12 tables was passed in the beginning of the republic. In addition, plebeians gained access to magistrates and even priesthood service. The Lex Ogulnia Act, which was enacted around 300 BC it enabled the plebeians to perform priestly functions, and thus, as early as 254 BC, a plebeian was set to be Maximus pontifex.
