Law of Cuba

Socialist Law Tradition

Cuba's substantive and procedural law was originally based on Spanish civil law, and was later reshaped by the principles of Marxism-Leninism, which became the guiding philosophy of the state. Cuba's most recent constitution was enacted in 2019. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/

Entity-backed identity for the legal family value this legal-system already carries as an enum fact, resolved to a legal-system entity by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The enum fact itself stays on the entity unchanged.
