System of the Roman Law (work)
The "System of Roman Law" refers to the structured body of legal principles and practices developed by ancient Rome that laid the foundation for many modern legal systems. It organized laws into categories such as civil law, criminal law, and commercial law, emphasizing concepts like contracts, property rights, and justice. Roman law was characterized by its systematic approach, written codes, and authoritative legal writings. Its influence persists today in various legal traditions, especially in civil law countries, providing principles for fairness, legal clarity, and the regulation of social relationships.
