Date: 2022

Contemporary European law refers to the development of European legal systems from the late 18th century to the present day. The Napoleonic era, known for the Napoleonic Wars, is also notable for the French Civil Code of 1804, a landmark in legal history. This code replaced the fragmented system of customary law and redefined jurists as interpreters of codified statutes.
