French codes of law were created after the Revolution. The synthesization of civil law gave rise to the Code civil, a code of civil procedure in 1806, a commercial code in 1807, a code of criminal procedure in 1808 and a criminal code in 1810. This body of law has survived-intact in form and outline, although greatly changed in substance-into the last years of the 20th century.
The Codes are available online through the French Justice department's website: www legifrance gouv fr
