achievement

Based on his philosophical thoughts, Bacon himself has a grand idea of codification and systematization of English law. He regards English law as an amorphous thing, but it can be reshaped in the form of a complete code according to the principle of consistency with natural law, thus making it a thorough science. As the leader of the British judicial circles, he thought that he must shoulder this mission, and the compilation of the Collection of Orders of the Chancellor's Court systematized the scattered laws in the past, which was an important achievement for Bacon to accomplish this mission.
