We remember the events of the time before and around the fall because they teach us the invaluable contribution of the Orthodox Church to the survival of the Greek nation.

Justinian code
Justinian code is a collection of laws and legal interpretation developed under sponsorship of the Byzantine emperor Justinian from AD 529 to 556.
The plan had three parts: the Code is a compilation, by selection and extraction, of imperial enactments to date; the Digest and Pandects.
The Digest or Pandects is an encyclopedia with mostly brief extracts from the writings of Roman jurists; and the Institutes.

Justinian code
The Institutes is a student textbook, mainly introducing the Code although it has important conceptual elements that are less developed in the Code or the Digest.
All three parts, even the text book, we're given force of law. They were intended to be together like the sole source of law.
Today these law today are counted as the 4th part of Justinian law (Corpus).
