How did napleon codify french laws?
Napoleon collected the mish mash of existing civil law in France and codified it in 1804. The Napoleonic Code both clarified the law, made it uniform and put it in writing. It is still in use but has been revised. The Napoleonic Code influenced the civil code in most countries in continental Europe and Latin America. It's influence can be seen in American law with many legal terms we inherited from England finding their origin in the French language. In Louisiana, the only civil-law state in the U.S., the civil code of 1825 (revised in 1870 and still in force) is closely connected to the Napoleonic Code. See more in the link provided below.
