Civil and Commercial Code

The earliest surviving civil code is the Code of Ur-Nammu, written around 2100-2050 BC, and it is a codification of private law relating to property, family, and obligations. The idea of codification re-emerged during the Age of Enlightenment, leading to the creation of modern civil codes in various European countries, including Germany, Austria, and France, with the French Napoleonic code being the most influential. The code was enacted in 1804 and introduced in many countries under French occupation, influencing civil law systems in Europe, Latin America, and other regions.learn more on wikipedia
