Code Napoléon

The civil code introduced by Napoléon Bonaparte in 1804 in France and in the European territories dominated by France at the time. It was named the Code Napoléon in 1807. The code attempted to unify the customs of northern and southern France and was a combination of rationalist and traditional principles. It includes key concepts such as equality for all in the eyes of the law and no recognition of privilege. The code was adopted in most of continental Europe and is a lasting legacy of the era.
