Melfi Law Code (English: Constitutioni di Melfi)
A collection of royal laws for the Kingdom of Sicily, enacted in 1231 by Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II (1194-1250) at Melfi in southern Italy. It is also called the Imperial Book, Liber Augustalis. Frederick II was born to Emperor Henry VI and the Norman Sicilian princess Constance, and became king of Sicily at the age of three, and later became emperor (crowned in 1220). He inherited the Norman dynasty and built a centralized state under the influence of the Byzantine Empire, and used it as a foothold to strengthen imperial power.
