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.

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 ...

Magnus Erikssons Landslag
The Magnus Erikssons landslag (Country Law of Magnus Eriksson) also called only ''Landslagen'' (Country Law) was a Swedish law passed by king Magnus IV in circa 1341. It was the first attempt to a law applying to the entire nation of Sweden, replacing the previous local county laws of the Medieval Scandinavian law. 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. The Kristofers landslag from 1442, was an amended version this law, 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 ...

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 ...

Legal History Of Sweden
Law is a set of rules that are created and are enforceable by social or governmental institutions to regulate behavior,Robertson, ''Crimes against humanity'', 90. with its precise definition a matter of longstanding debate. It has been variously described as a science and as the art of justice. State-enforced laws can be made by a group legislature or by a single legislator, resulting in statutes; by the executive through decrees and regulations; or established by judges through precedent, usually in common law jurisdictions. Private individuals may create legally binding contracts, including arbitration agreements that adopt alternative ways of resolving disputes to standard court litigation. The creation of laws themselves may be influenced by a constitution, written or tacit, and the rights encoded therein. The law shapes politics, economics, history and society in various ways and serves as a mediator of relations between people. Legal systems vary between jurisdictions, ...

Legal History Of Finland
The law of Finland is based on the civil law tradition, consisting mostly of statutory law promulgated by the Parliament of Finland. The constitution of Finland, originally approved in 1919 and rewritten in 2000, has supreme authority and sets the most important procedures for enacting and applying legislation. As in civil law systems in general, judicial decisions are not generally authoritative and there is little judge-made law. Supreme Court decisions can be cited, but they are not actually binding. As a member of the European Union, European Union law is in force in Finland, and Finland implements EU directives in its national legislation. The Court of Justice of the European Union is the ultimate authority in matters in the competence of the European Union. As in Sweden, administrative law is interpreted by a separate administrative court system. Besides law proper, i.e. acts of parliament (''laki''), permanent government decrees (''asetus'') form an important body of law. I ...
