And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them
heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of

And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes
they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged
themselves.

~Exodus (Chapter 18, Verse 25-26)
This is perhaps the first recommendation of how men ought to govern themselves (at least in the western tradition). Seems pretty simple, and is similar to how we still do it today.
