The Lex Canuleia was a law of Ancient Rome, passed during the Republic in 445 BC, which allowed intermarrige between plebians and patricians. This law mainly resulted from the Plebian Successions in 494 BC.
The name of this law can be easily remembered using the following mnemonic: Miss Plebs asks Mr. Patrician to marry her. Mr. Patrician claims that he can't. Miss Plebs replies "Oh yes you can, you liar!"
