Nation | Legal system | Details |
---|---|---|
Gagium | Civil Law | The Gagian legal system has been decided by civil law since the Mavonan Empire. However, the modern system is highly influenced, if not dominated, by the Vaugric system created by Pascal Vaugrenet during his rule over Gagium. All of the commonwealths generally maintain very similar legal systems and practices. |
Greater Niagara | Common Law | The Niagaran legal system is a version of common law, derived from both old Niagaran common law and Fluvannian common law. Niagaran common law developed similar to the Fluvannian system in the early 1200's. |
Mantocia | Civil Law | Mantocian law is heavily based on the Mavonan code, and to a lesser extent the Vaugric Code. |
Perlsienne | Bijuridical/Mixed | Perlsienne's legal system is based on the Vaugric Code (civil law) as well as Greater Niagara's system of common law, inspired by Fluvan tradition. Common law and civil law are used on varying bases. |
The Furbish Islands | Bijuridical/Mixed | Furbish law is influenced by both Fluvan and Greater Niagaran common law, and Stratean civil law, itself based off of the Vaugric and Mavonan codes. For federal law, common law is generally used for criminal and some civil cases while civil law is used for other civil cases, although features from both systems are borrowed from all cases. Systems vary by federal subject. |
