In France the private law of the pre-revolutionary period was dominated by customary law: in the southern areas of the kingdom were applying legal books which were basically based on Justinian Roman law, while in the northern areas were dominated by local customs. In the 15th century, legal unification
efforts began with the writing of customary law systems, which became the basis of common French private law and traces of which can be found in Code civil as in force today. The French Revolution also had a decisive impact on the unification process and there was an urgent need for a new civil code based on common constitutional principles.
