<span>The original Napoleonic Code, or Code Napoléon (originally called the Code civil des francais, or civil code of the French), was the French civil code, established at the behest of Napoléon. It entered into force on March 21, 1804. The Napoleonic code was the first legal code to be established in a country with a civil legal system. It was based on Roman law, and followed Justinian's Corpus Juris Civilis in dividing civil law into: 1.personal status; 2.property; 3.acquisition of property. The Napoleonic Code properly said dealt only with civil law issues; other codes were also published dealing with criminal law and commercial law. Even though the Napoleonic Code was not the first, it was the most influential one. (For a list of early codes, see here). It was adopted in many countries that were occupied by French forces during the Napoleonic Wars and thus formed the basis of the private law systems also of Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Portugal and their former colonies. Other codes with some influence in their own right were the Swiss, German and Austrian ones, but even there some influence of the French code can be felt, as the Napoleonic Code is considered the first sucessful codification. Thus, the civil law systems of the countries of modern Europe, with the exception of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Russia, and the Scandinavian countries have, to different degrees, been influenced by the Napoleonic Code. The Code has thus been the most permanent legacy of Napoleon. </span>

In a ___ Economy, decisions about what products should be produced are made by the government. Command Market Mixed Traditional
Kruka [31]
1. Command economy- The idea behind this type of economy makes it so that the government can ensure that everyone has equal access to resources. The goal is to provide everyone with enough resources to live and thrive.

2. Mixed economy- A mixed economy is a combination of a command economy (in which the government decides how many products will be made) and a market economy (one in which the consumer dictates how many products will be made).

3. Mixed economy- In almost every country, there are elements of both a market economy and command economy. Having a "perfect" market economy or a "perfect" command economy is not really possible, as we do not live in a perfect world. The best ideas from each system need to be used in order to have a practical and rational economy.
