Jasa (English spelling)

Japanese: ヤサ(英語表記)Jasa
Jasa (English spelling)
A word meaning law or ordinance during the Mongol Empire. Yasa is a Turkish word, and in Mongolian it is called Jasak ("spread, black"). This word was apparently used to mean military law or military law before the founding of the Mongol Empire. With the founding of the empire in 1206, Genghis Khan established the basic law of the empire, which was called the Great Law (Yeke Jasak). This was later revised and refined in 1218 and 1225. The Great Law is thought to have been codified based on the customary law of the Mongol people, but also incorporating various contents necessary for the governance of a large empire.

Japanese:
モンゴル帝国時代に法令,法度を意味した言葉。ヤサはトルコ語で,モンゴル語ではジャサクJasak(札撒,札撒黒)という。この語はモンゴル帝国建設前,軍律,軍法などの意味で用いられていたらしい。1206年の帝国の建国とともにチンギス・ハーンは帝国の基本法を定めたが,それは大法令(イェケ・ジャサクYeke Jasak)と称された。これはその後1218年,25年に手が加えられて整えられた。大法令はモンゴル族の慣習法に基づきながら,大帝国の統治に必要な種々の内容をもりこんで法典化されたものとみられる。
