I have to learn it and I hate it. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 27/07/2016 11:35:02 PM

More seriously, I actually tend towards the civil law's style of resolving private affairs. It's just that I'm going into criminal law and am therefore profoundly uninterested in the topics that the Code covers.

Wow. You really do live in an alternate universe - but in this case maybe one many Americans share. Legolas - 23/07/2016 10:40:27 AM 934 Views
As someone who just took a final on matrimonial regimes, the Code Civil is NOT a net good. *NM* Ghavrel - 24/07/2016 03:24:35 AM 411 Views

The American revolution did virtually all of that first and without the Reign of Terror. *NM* random thoughts - 25/07/2016 06:40:09 PM 594 Views
Yes, because the Americans rebelled against someone four thousand miles away. Legolas - 25/07/2016 07:00:20 PM 841 Views
Distance was an issue but who lead them was a major factor as well random thoughts - 26/07/2016 05:41:13 PM 876 Views
