Coscivian law is the result of synergetic fusion between law "from above" - law imposed by state authorities - and law "from below" that emerges organically from history and custom or dynamically from the judicial process. This two-tiered system reflects the history of the Coscivian Empires and their successors extending their authority over wide areas populated by diverse, internally self-governing local communities, and the consequent need to synthesise the Law of the Emperor with the Law of the Land. | |||
