History

Julli [10]3 years ago

Ancient Roman law -also known as Justinian law- consisted of codified law. A codex was a gathering of all civil Roman law, to ensure that law and justice were clear and transparent.

Nowadays, we can find codified systems in various European and Latin American countries and in some parts of The United States of America, such as Louisiana. These codified systems were inspired and modeled after ancient Roman law.

Legal terminology used today is highly influenced by Latin terminology -this is terminology used in Roman law.-

Regarding ancient Greece, philosophy developed by the Greeks was used by Romans in the process of developing legal theories and deciding on different points of law. The Draconian code, developed by a Greek, was the one that had a homicide law that distinguished between involuntary homicide and premeditated homicide.

Another important thing to highlight is Greek rhetoric, this is the way in which people spoke which has influenced the way in which lawyers speak nowadays.

bulgar [2K]

The correct answer is "C: He trained long-range snipers that struck terror in the hearts of his opponents."

Pancho Villa was a revolutionary general and one of the most important figures in the independence of Mexico. He was widely known to be a brilliant tactician on the battlegrounds. Instead of using traditional military formations, he adopted alternative "guerilla" style tactics, trying to evade direct open-field contact with the enemy.

He would fill a locomotive with explosives and send it into the enemy's depot where it would subsequently explode and leave the enemy short on supplies. he would also train snipers in order to inflict fear in these enemies, as they felt helpless while seeing their comrades fall with and no enemies to be seen.
