Roman-Dutch law is a legal system that originated from Roman law and was developed in the Netherlands during the 17th century. It became the foundation for legal systems in several countries, particularly those in Southern Africa, such as South Africa and Namibia, due to Dutch colonial influence. The system emphasizes case law and principles derived from Roman law, while also incorporating local customs and practices. Today, it serves as a hybrid legal framework, blending traditional Roman-Dutch concepts with modern legal principles.
Dutch law has not affected Roman Law. it is the other way round. The Romans were around centuries before Holland was even formed. Dutch civil law is based on French civil law, which in turn is based on Roman civil law. In 1992 new law codes which were heavily influenced by German civil law, which in turn is also based on Roman civil Law, were introduced. Dutch civil law affects the Dutch as it is the law of Holland.

Do you think so? Think about it, Roman Law Code...Roman people... But I don't know... Maybe it did because the Roman people followed Roman Laws!
I do not know whether Roman law is important to the EU problem. Roman law has provided the foundation for the civil law of many modern European countries. I do not know what role Roman law plays in the legislation of the EU.
The lowlands of Scotland were occupied by the Romans only briefly. Therefore, they were not influenced by Roman law. England was occupied and became a province of the Roman Empire and Roman law became the law of the land.

Roman law significantly influenced the South African legal system, particularly during the colonial period when Dutch and later British legal principles were applied. The integration of Roman-Dutch law established foundational legal concepts, such as property rights and contractual obligations, which still underpin South African law today. Additionally, the principles of natural justice and legal interpretation from Roman law continue to resonate in contemporary legal practices. Overall, while South African law has evolved, Roman law remains a key historical reference point in its legal framework.
They are very similar with very different avenues for implementation. This is not intended to be a full answer but to replace the terrible answer that was here before. Essentially, both rely on statutory law as well as precedent. From my understanding, common law, which originally was all precedent based, lays out a requirement forcing subsequent cases that are the same as previously rendered cases to be judged with basically the same outcome. In America, this is only relevant to similar cases in the same or subservient courts. Please correct wherever I'm wrong, to fully understand this requires months of legal study.
