Justinian I

Belisarius.

Well considering that he was the Byzantine emperor (the eastern Roman Empire was called the Byzantine Empire and did not fall when the western one did), I'd say many. He actually was more like Roman emperors then his Byzantine predecessors and attempted to restore the old borders of the empire.

because he ruled for a long time then the people of Constantinople made him the last king of Constantinople. hope i answered your question

The Justinian code was the result of Emperor Justinian's desire to consolidate existing Roman law. Justinian's legislation or "Corpus juris civilis" formed the basis of later Byzantine law.

Justinian I's major goals during his reign were to reunite the Roman Empire, return it to its former glory , and to reclaim lost territory in the West.

It made Roman civil law the civil law of, or the foundation of civil law in most western countries. It was not a code of laws and was not called Justinian code either. It was called Corpus Iuris Civilis (body of civil laws) and a collection of books (codex meant book, not code) with a massive compendium of Roman laws since tie times of Hadrian, a collection of assays and a student textbook.

Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Law), which was also dubbed the Justinian Code in the 16th century. It was commissioned by the emperor Justinian I (or the Great, reigned 527-565) in 529. It was a very comprehensive collection of extracts from four centuries of Roman law. It put the laws in a single book (previously they were written on many different scrolls), scrapped obsolete or unnecessary laws, made changes when necessary, and clarified obscure passages. Its aim was to harmonise conflicting views among jurists which arose from centuries of poorly organised development of Roman law and have a uniform and coherent body of law. It also included collections of essays by famous Roman jurists in two student textbooks, one for first year law students and one for advanced students.

This work was forgotten until it was discovered in a library in Pisa in 1070. It had a big impact because it provided a comprehensive and coherent body of law which was lacking in Europe at the time. The first university in Europe, Bologna University (in Italy), became important because of its law faculty. It had four professors who specialised in the study of the Digest (as it was then known). It attracted law students from around Europe. The work at this university laid the foundations of Medieval Roman law. The use of the Digest for the training of the fledgling profession of lawyers spread around Western Europe.

The Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I (reigned 1122-1190) was the first European ruler to employ the new professional class of lawyers to run the administration of a state. The Digest provided a framework for a consistent system of administration. It also made of for the loss of legitimacy of the claim of divine right to rule which had been suffered by his predecessors with their controversies with the papacy. The rule of law now became the legitimiser.

Napoleon I established the Napoleonic Code in 1804. It was the first modern legal code to be adopted with a pan-European scope. It strongly influenced the law of many of the countries established during and after the Napoleonic Wars and therefore on continental western European civil law. In was inspired by the Corpus Juris Civilis and used several of its legal definitions. However, it was not a digest of edited texts of existing law. It was a rewriting of law which replaced a patchwork of feudal laws and it was more systematic. It streamlined the law and made it clearer and more accessible. It formed the basis of the private 19th century law systems of Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Portugal Poland and parts of what is now Germany. It has influenced the contemporary civil law systems of Europe except for the British Isles, Russia and Scandinavia. It has been influential in some developing countries, especially in the Middle East,

Theodora did have a lot of good impacts to the Byzantine Empire, some of which include:

1. The fact that she told Justinian to crush the Nika Rebellion instead of running away.

2. She aided in many of Justinian's choices or decisions.

3. She led to women owning land.

4. She gave a new meaning to the word, "Empress" since she was helping Justinian rule.

4. She gave rights to women.

She was Justinian's wife. Justinian met her when she was a actress. However she became his co-ruler a few years after they were married. Theodora passed laws against rape, and gave women property rights and rights to be guardians for their children.

Justinian was an emperor of Byzantine Empire who ruled from 527 ad to 565 ad. He was born in Tauresium (province dardania).

His real name was Flavius Petrus Sabbatius Iustinianus.

He is famous for his legislative activities, primarily for his codification of all the known Roman law called "Corpus iuris civilis".

He's known for his "reconquista" a large campaign he fought with the help of his commanders Belisarius and Narzes. The goal of the campaign was the restoration of the Roman Empire and the Reunification of all the territories that were once a part of it.

The most famous were the wars agains Sassanid Empire in Iberia, against Vandals in North Africa and in Italy against Goths.

He is also known for his religious activities and suppression of all religions except Nicean (orthodox) Christianity, as well as economical and cultural activities.

It is the Church of The Holy Wisdom, or Ἁγία Σοφία .

Justinian gained absolute power over the Byzantine Empire, he built the Hagia Sophia "Holy Wisdom" also he created the Justinian Code which was a set of 5,000 roman laws.

Justinian I wanted to 'restore' the Roman Empire by reconquering the lands lost by the western part of the Roman Empire as a result of the Germanic invasions.

Justinian's army defeated the Vandals in Africa (Vandalic War, 533-534) retaking the area of the Vandalic kingdom (northern Tunisia and eastern Algeria). The Moors of southern Tunisia and western Libya rebelled and were defeated later, in 548. Justinian wanted to restore Africa as it had been under the Romans. The religion of the Vandals, Arian Christianity, was persecuted. Many Vandals fled Africa and some went west, to Algeria, and integrated with the local Berbers. The remaining Vandals were shipped to the east and enlisted in the imperial army. The Vandal ethnic group disappeared.

Justinian managed to retake the Spanish areas along the southern coast.

Justinian I attacked the Ostrogoths in Italy, starting the Gothic War (535-54) which he won. However, this was a highly costly victory. Nineteen years of fierce fighting left some areas of northern Italy devastated and depopulated. The war depleted the resources of the empire. This and the impoverishment of Italy made it impossible for the Byzantines to oppose the invasion of northern Italy by the Lombards fifteen year later (569-72). The Lombards also took over areas of central and southern Italy. The remaining Byzantine possessions in Italy were in part of central Italy and in Apulia, Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica.

Justinian I also wanted to protected and consolidate the official church of the empire (the orthodox Church). He persecuted dissident Christian sects and paganism. He secured the rights of the church and the clergy and protected and expanded the monastic orders. He granted the monks the right to inherit property from private individuals and to receive annual gifts for the state and banned the confiscation of monastic property. He gave the canons of the church legal force and issued laws regarding the administration of church property, the elections, rights and obligations of the clergy, the conduct of service and episcopal jurisdiction. Justinian I was one of the most important emperors in the history of the Orthodox Church. He was described as a 'nursing father' of the church. He put it on a more solid footing, and redefined its structure.

Justinian set up a panel of ten experts to produce a law code. Many European nations used his law code for years. France, Scotland, and many Latin Nations, still use features of his law code.

Different orders were founded for different purposes, and monasteries were built for those purposes, although some evolved into other purposes.

Some monasteries were simply places were religious people could devote their lives to prayer, as more than a few did. Kings sometimes abdicated and went to live in monasteries, and queens did even more often.

Some were places where people who were in trouble or abused could seek refuge. The royal governments were reluctant to risk removing people from sanctuary because doing so could mean excommunication to the people involved, and an excommunicated king's vassals were usually freed from their oaths of allegiance, so the life and power of the king would be at stake.

Some were hospitals, as we know them, and others were hostels, or places people on pilgrimage could stay.

Some monasteries were devoted to transcribing books, or even specifically to transcribing bibles.

Monasteries were places where some people could get educations. This is particularly true of people who were not to go to ordinary schools, and this included members of royal families because they were safer in monasteries than they would be in schools.

Some monasteries became focused on the production of specific foods, such as cheese, wine or beer.

Perhaps other people could add more to this.

Justinian's Body of Civil Law consisted of 4 parts.

They eliminated inconsistencies in the law. They made it easier for common people to know the laws.

Justinian I (or the great) main legacies were/are in the fields of religion and law.

Justinian I protected the purity of the official church (the Orthodox Church and persecuted dissident Christian sects and paganism. He secured the rights of the church and the clergy and protected and expanded the monastic orders. He granted the monks the right to inherit property from private individuals and to receive annual gifts for the state and banned the confiscation of monastic property. He gave the canons of the church legal force and issued laws regarding the administration of church property, the elections, rights and obligations of the clergy, the conduct of service and episcopal jurisdiction. Justinian I was one of the most important emperors in the history of the Orthodox Church. He described as a 'nursing father' of the church. He put it on a more solid footing, and redefined its structure.

Justinian I's other main legacy was his commissioning of the Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil law) which was later dubbed the Justinian Code. This was a digest of centuries of Roman civil law, collected them in a single book (previously they had been kept in scrolls) and gave a uniform organisation this law, scrapped obsolete enactments and redefined obscure passages. It also included a collection of essays by famous jurists and a student textbook.

This work is famous for the impact it had in western Europe when it was rediscovered in a library in Pisa in 1070. It quickly became very popular, was studied in European universities and influenced the development of law in western Europe. The civil law of many modern countries is based on this work.
