Five legal systems – civil law, common law, customary law, Muslim law and mixed systems – are briefly described, and the world’s “political entities” (mostly countries) are listed and classified according to the system under which they operate. This is the second edition (2008) of a site first created in 1999 by JuriGlobe, a research group formed by professors from the Faculty of Law of the University of Ottawa.
