Its influence on common law legal systems has been much smaller although some basic concepts from the Corpus have survived through Norman law – such as the contrast especially in the Institutes between statute and custom. The Corpus continues to have a major influence on public international law. Its four parts thus constitute the foundation documents of the Western legal tradition. In the Renaissance Justinian’s Code was translated into vernacular languages and formed the base for the legal system for the majority of countries up until the 19th century.
