For a long time, after the appearance of man on Earth, the human being lived in disorder, relying only on animal instincts, strictly satisfying his primary needs for food, shelter and reproduction. Evolution, however, forced him to adopt another way of life, the social one, settling and grouping in systems of an administrative organization called, at first tribes, and then villages and cities. This way of systematizing and stabilizing the population brought great changes in human psychology, especially in the nature of its consciousness, developing the concept of incipient morality. A little later, but also in the same period, the legal system appears in the background of the development of the fortress. The latter sought to derive its essence from the already existing rules, being closely related to the system of moral norms. The article aims to briefly analyze the psychological and social factors that led to the emergence and structuring of moral norms by comparison with the legal system, viewed through the prism of the evolution and organization of human life, both socially and philosophically. Some conclusions drawn at the end of the paper will aim to clearly highlight the fact that law, in general, and its system, in particular, has its beginning in moral psychology merging with it and forming mandatory socio-behavioral rules.
