I've come across these terms from time to time while researching, and while i understand that the terms are mostly used to denote the origins of legal practices, what I don't understand is what characterizes/differentiates these particular legal systems.
For example, i have skimmed articles related to Welsh laws and they seem extremely similar to things I've seen in germanic law codes.
I guess what im asking is if theres anything substantive about these categories or if they're basically meaningless
