The spread of common law in the world is due both to the once widespread influence of Britain in the world and the growth of its former colony, the United States. Although judges in one common law country cannot directly support their decisions by cases from another, it is permissible for a judge to note such evidence in giving an explanation. Nevertheless, political divergence has produced legal divergence from England. Unified federal law is only a small part of American law. Most of it is produced by individual states and reflects various traditions. The state of Louisiana, for example, has a Roman civil form of law which derives from its days as a French colony. California has a case law tradition, but its laws are codified as extensively as many Continental systems. Quebec is an island of French law in the Canadian sea of case law. In India, English common law has been codified and adopted alongside a Hindu tradition of law. Sri Lanka has inherited a criminal code from the Russian law introduced by the Dutch, and an uncodified civil law introduced by the British.

<span>Olga Spiridonova Гуру (2800) 4 года назад<span>When I was younger, I loved visiting the local zoo. All the animals seemed to be mysterious and happy, each in it's own way. I couldn't stop thinking about where they came from, what they did in the wild and what they ate. I would look at the huge, gleaming teeth of the lions and tigers and imagine their power and might and be in awe of them completely. The crocodiles would sleep peacefully in the sunshine, seemingly harmless, but their lean, muscular bodies gave a scary reminder of their power.
However, one area of the zoo held a special fascination for me; the reptile house. The variety of their sizes, colours and behaviour were a source of wonder and fantasy for me. Their big, bulging eyes and sleek skin transported me to the age of dinosaurs as I crouched by their cages to get a closer look at them.
Of course, as well as the animals, the zoo was a place for other special treats. The candy floss, the ice creams and fizzy drinks were the end of a perfect day for a curious child.
Now, my opinion about zoos has changed. Although life in the wild presents challenges and dangers for all animals, it has to be preferred to being a prisoner in a cage and a money making tool for greedy owners.</span></span>
