Norman Law refers to the legal system established in England after the Norman Conquest of 1066. It introduced a centralized form of governance and legal practices, replacing the fragmented systems that existed before. The law was characterized by the use of royal courts and the development of common law, which emphasized case precedents and judicial decisions. Under Norman Law, the king held ultimate authority, and local lords administered justice in their territories. This system laid the foundation for modern English law, influencing legal practices in many countries that followed the English legal tradition, including the United States and Canada.
