The Country Law applied to the entire countryside, but not to the cities, which were governed according to the ''Stadslagen'' (City Law), which were issued in about the same time, but were separate laws.

Magnus IV Of Sweden
Magnus IV (April or May 1316 – 1 December 1374; Swedish ''Magnus Eriksson'') was King of Sweden from 1319 to 1364, King of Norway as Magnus VII (including Iceland and Greenland) from 1319 to 1355, and ruler of Scania from 1332 to 1360. By adversaries he has been called ''Magnus Smek'' (English: ''Magnus the Caresser''). Referring to Magnus Eriksson as ''Magnus II'' is incorrect. The Swedish Royal Court lists three Swedish kings before him of the same name. A few authors do not count Magnus Nilsson as a Swedish king (though the Royal Court does) and have thus called this king ''Magnus III''. He is the second longest-reigning monarch in Swedish history, only surpassed by the current king Carl XVI Gustaf, who surpassed Magnus in 2018. Biography Magnus was born in Norway either in April or May 1316 to Eric, Duke of Södermanland and Ingeborg, a daughter of Haakon V of Norway. Magnus was elected king of Sweden on 8 July 1319, and acclaimed as hereditary king of Norway at ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Medieval Scandinavian Law
Medieval Scandinavian law, also called North Germanic law, was a subset of Germanic law practiced by North Germanic peoples. It was originally memorized by lawspeakers, but after the end of the Viking Age they were committed to writing, mostly by Christian monks after the Christianization of Scandinavia. Initially, they were geographically limited to minor jurisdictions (''lögsögur''), and the Bjarkey laws concerned various merchant towns, but later there were laws that applied to entire Scandinavian kingdoms. Each jurisdiction was governed by an assembly of free men, called a þing. The court assembly, the '' thing'', used the law and heard witnesses to rule whether the accused was guilty or not. There were usually two types of punishment: outlawing and fines. The most common means of justice were, however, fines; the amount varied, depending on the severity of the offense. This system was extremely intricate and the fines themselves, singularly a "mulct", were also varied ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Stadslagen
The Stadslagen (City Law), was a Swedish law passed by king Magnus IV of Sweden in circa 1350. It governed the life in the cities of Sweden until 1734. The ''Stadslagen'' was passed by in about the same time as the ''Magnus Erikssons landslag'' (Country Law of Magnus Eriksson), and as the former was to apply in the country side, the city law was to apply in the cities. The law was strongly influenced by the contemporary German city laws, as the Swedish cities at the time had many German settlers. In 1442, the country law was succeeded by the '' Kristofers landslag'', but the city law was merely incorporated in this and left unaltered and uncontested. It was printed in 1618. It was in effect in Sweden-Finland until the Civil Code of 1734 The Civil Code of 1734 (Swedish: ''1734 års lag''), was passed by the Swedish Riksdag of the Estates in 1734, and put in effect after it had been ratified by Frederick I of Sweden 23 January 1736.

Kristofers Landslag
The Kristofers landslag (The Country Law of Christopher) from 1442, was passed under Christopher of Bavaria as king of Sweden in 1442. It was an amended version of the original national law, the ''Magnus Erikssons landslag'' from circa 1350. It was in effect in Sweden-Finland until the Civil Code of 1734. History It is unclear whether the law was ever confirmed by king Christopher. It was used in parallel to the previous ''Magnus Erikssons landslag''. It was to be used in the country side (hence its name), while the cities were still to be governed by the ''Stadslagen'' (City law) from 1350. In 1608, the ''Kristofers landslag'' was reprinted on the order of Charles IX of Sweden, which solved the question about which law to use. The judges were also granted the right to use the old Medieval Scandinavian law in the cases when the law of 1442 was unclear. The law was also amended with the law texts from the Law of Moses of the bible. The 1608 biblical amendments to the ''Kristofers ...

Civil Code Of 1734
The Civil Code of 1734 (Swedish: ''1734 års lag''), was passed by the Swedish Riksdag of the Estates in 1734, and put in effect after it had been ratified by Frederick I of Sweden 23 January 1736. It became the foundation of the later civil code in Sweden – including Österland, which became Finland when annexed by Russia in 1809; though many alterations have been made in both Sweden and Finland since. The current Swedish Code of Statutes is founded on the civil code of 1734. The Civil Code of 1734 replaced the previous '' Kristofers landslag'' (The National Law of Christopher) from 1442, and the ''Stadslagen'' (The City Law) from 1347–57. It was the first civil code to apply the same law to all of Sweden. Previously, the '' Kristofers landslag'' referred to the Medieval Scandinavian law concerning the countryside, which could vary depending on the county, or the ''Stadslagen'' concerning the cities.Nationalencyklopedin (NE) There was a need to establish a civil code and laws a ...

14th Century In Sweden
14 (fourteen) is a natural number following 13 and preceding 15. In relation to the word "four" ( 4), 14 is spelled "fourteen". In mathematics * 14 is a composite number. * 14 is a square pyramidal number. * 14 is a stella octangula number. * In hexadecimal, fourteen is represented as E * Fourteen is the lowest even ''n'' for which the equation φ(''x'') = ''n'' has no solution, making it the first even nontotient (see Euler's totient function). * Take a set of real numbers and apply the closure and complement operations to it in any possible sequence. At most 14 distinct sets can be generated in this way. ** This holds even if the reals are replaced by a more general topological space. See Kuratowski's closure-complement problem * 14 is a Catalan number. * Fourteen is a Companion Pell number. * According to the Shapiro inequality 14 is the least number ''n'' such that there exist ''x'', ''x'', ..., ''x'' such that :\sum_^ \frac < \frac where ''x'' = ''x'', ''x ...
