Abstract
The history of French law in the early modern period is characterized by gradual unification, rationalization, and centralization. From the fifteenth century, the central authorities started the official registration of customary law, seeking to implement more legal uniformity and security. The homologation process resulted in the publication of doctrinal treatises, in particular about the custom of Paris, which later became the chief legal basis of the 1804 Code civil. Case law also contributed to the consolidation of private law. The sixteenth and seventeenth centuries are marked by the political commitment of the monarchy to codify law in order to achieve legal and procedural unification, assert royal legislation as the main source of law, and contribute to France’s commercial and colonial policy. The great ordinances of Louis XIV and the custom of Paris were indeed transplanted to Canada and Louisiana and therefore became the main expressions of France’s legal expansion.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
