Question: - Describe and distinguish the civil law system from the common law system. Simply put, what is the difference between the two? Give an example as to where/what country or region you may find each system of law. With respect to each system, does a later court need to follow an earlier court's reasoning in a similar case?

This question is worth 7 marks - one mark each for the brief description or definition, one mark for the primary distinguishing feature, one mark each for the example of country or region and one mark each with respect to the question on reasoning in similar cases (Bonus mark for the common law term for this).
