Roman Law is the legal system that originated in ancient Rome and has influenced many modern legal systems. It is based on written laws, legal principles, and court decisions. The foundation of Roman Law includes the Twelve Tables, which were the first codification of laws in the 5th century BCE, ensuring that laws were accessible to all citizens.
Over time, Roman Law evolved through various phases, including the Republic and the Empire. It introduced concepts such as contracts, property rights, and legal representation, which are still relevant today. The study of Roman Law continues to be important for understanding the development of legal systems in many countries.
