∙ 13y agoThe Roman Republic influenced it. After overthrowing their King, the Romans spent 500 years using a form of government which combined elements of democracy, aristocracy and monarchy, each with different purposes.

What are the primary sources of US Laws?
The primary sources of US laws are English common laws, case law, statutes, and the Constitution. English common law was used as a foundation for the laws we have today, but in the 1800s it was ruled that these laws must be recorded so that the citizens would know what they were.
