Lex Romanorum

It includes a complex set of laws, legal principles, and procedures that governed daily life, property, contracts, and justice in the Roman Republic and Empire. This legal framework has profoundly influenced modern legal systems in many countries, forming the foundation for concepts like civil law, legal rights, and court procedures. Essentially, Lex Romanorum represents the organized body of Roman law that shaped the development of Western legal tradition.
