In this series we will be looking into the specifics on Law in our region, as well as explain the basics of law as some form of handbook for those new to law, those interested in it, and want to know more about our region's legal system. This will be a small side project for me to look into the legal system and get used to it more, and to make it more accessible to the public.
When one person thinks about law thinks of rules, of a certain set of guidelines or strict codes by which a society or group holds itself in order to maintain order and, to some extent, logic. We're social animals, and by such, we behave in a manner by which we comply with each other. First there was the rule of the strongest, in which the rules, the orders were given by that who had the biggest stick, or the sharpest sword. But still there was some form of organisation, which may distinguish us from other animals. And law isn't just there to be looked upon and expect to comply pro bono, but also to be enforced, and to fix what is wrong in a sense of justice. We could say that the first ounce of justice was done when a man hit another, and the second retaliated. Action, reaction, and that would lead to a direct kind of justice, in which that who was strongest, had the will of the law, had the power to enforce it.
Currently it is not like that, as we all are aware on our surroundings, for we work in a more complicated behavior. We theoretically put our own laws in common with the form of a parliament, in the case of this region, of the Regional Assembly, and any wrongdoings and acts against this will of the people is acted upon with the enforcement of the law with the current court system.
We're the last part of a millenia long evolution of society as a whole, as manifested in our laws, in our philosophy, and by that we can say that our laws could be better than some in the past, but is nowhere from being the most optimal way, nor the most just, for there isn't really a true common concept of justice. It is widely spread that justice is equal to equality, equity, or even punishing the wrongdoer. But how do you define a wrongdoer?
Certain situations, and time stamps, define the laws within a situation, a contextualization of a whole. We cannot look into our past legislation without knowing the mentality of that era, or the intent, for each law, each act, has its intention, it development and its time. There is no true, perfect law, such as there is no perfect ethic, or absolute law in the vast universe.
But we can look into more concrete parts of law, its history, meaning, and explanation.
CHAPTER ONE. About the general concept of law.
When one person thinks about law thinks of rules, of a certain set of guidelines or strict codes by which a society or group holds itself in order to maintain order and, to some extent, logic. We're social animals, and by such, we behave in a manner by which we comply with each other. First there was the rule of the strongest, in which the rules, the orders were given by that who had the biggest stick, or the sharpest sword.

And law isn't just there to be looked upon and expect to comply pro bono, but also to be enforced, and to fix what is wrong in a sense of justice. We could say that the first ounce of justice was done when a man hit another, and the second retaliated. Action, reaction, and that would lead to a direct kind of justice, in which that who was strongest, had the will of the law, had the power to enforce it.
