Answer:

Napoleon. The legal system in Louisiana—unlike that of any other state—derives from the Civil Code established by the French emperor in 1804. ... In theory, a judge in Louisiana decides a case based on her own interpretation of the code, not those of prior courts

Explanation:

Louisiana is the only Civil law jurisdiction in the United States. Louisiana gets its Civil law legal system from its colonial past as a possession of two Civil law countries, Spain and France. It may be better to think of Louisiana's legal system as a hybrid consisting of both Civil and Common law influences

well its weird to say but honestly it lead to the early victories because of the belief that they were the best plus it lead to a unification of germany.

a counter argument would be that it was the down fall of germany because they became to cocky leading to the war on both fronts which ultimatly defeated them, but honestly it was only hitler that thought he could continue to take russia in winter leading to the down fall.

MY ANSWER

so i would say that the totalotarian state was the cause of early victories not defeat.
