The Roman law was known as the "ius civile" for the laws applicable to Roman citizens and "ius gentium" for those applicable to foreigners and nations. It served as the foundation for legal systems in many Western countries and was codified in the "Corpus Juris Civilis" under Emperor Justinian in the 6th century AD. This comprehensive compilation preserved and organized Roman legal principles, influencing modern legal thought and practice.
