Codex Theodosianus

Read a random definition: delineational gerrymandering

A quick definition of Codex Theodosianus:

The Codex Theodosianus, also known as the Theodosian Code, is a collection of laws created by the Roman Emperor Theodosius II in 438 AD. It replaced all previous imperial legislation and was the basis of Roman law until it was replaced by the first Justinian Code in 529 AD. It is not known for its literary style, as some of the writing is difficult to read and understand.

A more thorough explanation:

Codex Theodosianus is a compilation of imperial enactments in Roman law. It was prepared at the direction of the emperor Theodosius II and published in A.D. 438. The Theodosian Code replaced all other imperial legislation from the time of Constantine I (A.D. 306–337), and remained the basis of Roman law until it was superseded by the first Justinian Code in A.D. 529.

One example of the Codex Theodosianus is the law that prohibited Jews from holding public office or serving in the army. This law was included in the Theodosian Code and remained in effect until the fall of the Roman Empire.

This example illustrates how the Codex Theodosianus was a comprehensive collection of laws that governed all aspects of Roman life, including religious and social practices.

Bro didnt realize that Application review is on a rolling basis. Decisions are made on individual applications as quickly as possible; however, the time required to a make a decision will vary among applications. A rolling admission process allows for extending the review process as appropriate ensuring that each application receives full and individualized attention in the context of careful comparison to other complete applications.

Raw eggs roll down my throat. I actually like eating raw eggs, however, the feeling of a glob of yolk/albumen gives me the feeling of chocking. Idk I personally think pushing yourself in all regards is a net positive, so I dig it. How many raw eggs have you ever eaten/drank at once? My record is 10
