The legal system of the Roman Empire is very important, but it can be tricky to understand today. Here are some reasons why:

1. Complexity:

   • There are a lot of old legal rules, which can be really confusing for today's laws.
   • Roman law is quite different from modern laws, which can create misunderstandings.

2. Inconsistency:

   • Different places used Roman law in their own ways, leading to many different meanings.
   • This can make people lose trust in the legal system.

Solutions:

• It’s important to simplify these old ideas so they fit better with today’s laws.
• Teaching people about ancient legal systems can help fill in the gaps and improve understanding.
