The Justinian
Code was created in order to create one single set of laws for all of the

basis for everyday actions within the empire including marriage, criminal
justice, slavery, and property rights. Along with this, the code ended up
serving as the basis for the laws of the Byzantine Empire for the next 900
years. Countries all over world use ideas from Justinian Code's in order to
form a comprehensive set of laws. The four sections of the code are the Codex

The Neolithic Era or the Stone Age
contributed greatly in the creation of civilizations for this was the period
where development in terms of agricultural practice, encouragement of
developing societies and cities took place. This was the time when men
started to domesticate plants and animals. This was somehow the transition from
the lifestyle of hunting and gathering to one of agriculture and settlement
which made way to the possibility of an increasing larger population during
that time. By doing so, they were able to produce more food which led to the
mastery of being artisans, merchants, government officials and other
professions needed to have civilization. It is said that for a civilization to
be considered legit, it must have cities, government, religion, social
structure, writing and art. And all these were evident and started during this
Period.
