Germanic Law refers to the legal systems and customs practiced by the Germanic tribes in ancient and medieval Europe. It was primarily based on unwritten traditions and oral customs, emphasizing community and kinship. Disputes were often resolved through assemblies or councils, where local leaders would mediate and decide on matters. Over time, Germanic Law evolved and influenced the development of modern legal systems in Europe. It contributed to concepts such as trial by jury and the importance of local customs in legal proceedings. The legacy of Germanic Law can still be seen in various aspects of contemporary law.
