Based on "The Institutes" Corupus Iurus Civilis or the Justinian Code, was the result of Emperor Justinian's desire that existing Roman law be collected into a simple and clear system of laws, or "code." Tribonian, a legal minister under Justinian, lead a group of scholars in a 14-month effort to codify existing Roman law. The result was the first Justinian Code, completed in 529. This code was later expanded to include Justinian's own laws, as well as two additional books on areas of the law. In 534, the Justinian Code, made up of the Code, the Digest, and the Institutes, was completed. http://orias.berkeley.edu/summer2004/summer2004JustinianCode.htm
it preserved Roman laws and influenced legal systems of the Middle Ages.
code of hammurabi. (i think) it was a question in my civics exam, and this is what i out. Code of Hammurabi is not correct. The code of Hammurabi was the first written set of laws ever, not the laws that simplified roman law. That would be Justinian Law.
Roman codes of laws were the Law of the Twelve Tables of 450 BC, the Gregorian Code (Codex Gregorianus) of 291- The Hermogenian Code (Codex Hermogenianus) of 291-4, the Theodosian Code (Codex Theodosianus) of 429 and the Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Law) also dubbed the Justinian Code of 534.

The Napoleonic Code, which was a civil law code, was based on the Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Law) also budded Justinian Code.
The Napoleonic Code established a single written and accessible law which replaced previous patchwork of feudal laws and created a modern code. It ignored previous French legal frameworks and used the Corpus Juris Civilis, also known as Justinian Code, as its inspiration. However, the Napoleonic code was different. The Justinian Code was a collection of edited extracts from centuries of Roman laws. The Napoleonic code was a complete rewriting of the law which was put together in a more systematic and rational way. It also incorporated some previous French rules.
it is not known who rediscovered the Corpus Juris Civilis, also dubbed as Justinian Code. It is known that it was rediscovered in a library in Pisa in 1070.

The Justinian code was the result of Emperor Justinian's desire to consolidate existing Roman law. Justinian's legislation or "Corpus juris civilis" formed the basis of later Byzantine law.
Justinian was the Emperor of the Byzantine Empire and he was known for making a code called "Justinians code" and it was to give everybody certain rights.
The laws of the Byzantine legal system were rewritten under the Emperor Justinian I and the reformed code was called the "Codex Justinianus." It was one of the four parts of the Corpus Juris Civilis, a comprehensive compilation of Roman laws.
