SUMMARY<\/b><\/p>\n
Belgian civil status was created by the Civil Code passed between 1801 and 1804 (promulgated on 31 March 1804) and renamed the Napoleonic Code in 1807. This code consists of three books: 1\u00b0 on persons. 2\u00b0 property and the various modifications of ownership. 3\u00b0 on the different ways of acquiring property.<\/p>\n
The Code incorporates a number of the achievements of the French Revolution: equality between citizens, secularity of the State, freedom of conscience, freedom to work, equality of children, the right to test, the possibility of divorce and little support for women's rights.<\/p>\n
It had a lasting influence on Belgian civil law in the XIX\u1d49 and XX\u1d49 centuries. It was under the French regime that the various judicial codes from which the Belgian Civil Code drew inspiration were published.<\/p>\n
