Roman law

A quick definition of Roman law:

Roman law was the legal system used by the ancient Romans. It formed the basis of modern civil law. Civil law is a set of rules that govern how people interact with each other. Roman law was used by many people in Europe, Asia, and Africa for a long time. Even though it is not used today, it is important because it helped create the civil law we use now. Roman law is one of the most well-known and influential legal systems in history.

A more thorough explanation:

Roman law refers to the legal system of the ancient Romans, which forms the basis of modern civil law. It governed the social relations of many peoples in Europe, Asia, and Africa for some period between the earliest prehistoric times and 1453 A.D.

For example, the Roman law influenced the legal systems of many countries, including France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The concept of "innocent until proven guilty" and the use of written contracts are some of the legal principles that originated from Roman law.

Today, no present-day community applies the rules of Roman law in their unmodified form. However, it is still an essential part of legal history and has influenced many modern legal systems.
