Question

Key term for us history

Answer 1

Laissez-faire is a doctrine concerning the relationship between a government and the economic system of the political entity (typically a sovereign nation) under the government's jurisdiction which holds that the government should interfere as little as possible, if at all, with the economy in order to allow it to develop and prosper on its own. The name of the doctrine is from the French laissez faire, a phrase that translates roughly into English as 'let do' or 'let (it) be' (laissez is the imperative of the verb laisser 'to let' or 'to allow' and faire is the infinitive form of a common verb that has a number of meanings in French including 'do' and 'make').

The Napoleonic Code (in French Code Napoléon) is a designation for the collection of civil law in France named after Napoléon Bonaparte, emperor of France under the title Napoléon I, under whose order and direction the code was assembled and published in 1804, following the upheaval of the French Revolution and setting down for the first time a comprehensive account of civil law in the country. Its formal title is Code civil des Français ('Civil Code of the French [People]').
