The Parliament of England, assented to by King Charles I

This dimension names the authority that formally promulgated a legal code, giving it the force of law. Wikipedia notes codification restates the law, "forming a legal code," a text that only takes effect once a legislature or sovereign authority issues it. Browsing this way collects every code issued by the same promulgating authority.
